I bet they're all thankful that it was just the auxiliary tender and not 3985. If she herself had derailed, oh, they would have a hell of a time getting her back on the rails.

3895 is a double header right? damn that would have sucked if she fell

Dude, that's an articulated steam loco. Thing weighs as much as a mountain.

@NorfolkAndWestern578 Eh, dunno, aren't locomotives relatively easy to get rerailed? Some dimensional lumber, a couple of rerailing frogs, and then just run them back and forth under their own power until they hop back on the rail...
