This is the first and most likely the last time these three steam engines will ever meet. UP #844, SP 2472 and Dollar Company #3. On April 22, 2009 all three steam engines met for a short photo and video shoot to help promote the Golden Gate Railroad Museum and the Niles Canyon Railroad. Visit their web.

good use of Tuxedo Junction, I filmed the 844 when she came into Roseville from Stockton, and when she left for Oroville

Thanks trainboy. I've found after doing my first train DVD (see preview of new SP 2472) that people hate music or love it. The 2472 DVD had sections of both. There's a segment where the engine has stopped on a curve with a heavy load. The wheels slip every time the engineer tries to start up. We happened to have a HD camera mounted right behind the drivers. It's spectacular watching those drivers slip. I wouldn't think of using music in that section of the video. Again, thanks Don

If I wanted to listen to music, I would have turned on my radio. What a shame that the historic sounds are ruined with this noise. Thankfully, they stopped with the looney tunes in time to hear whistles!

This is a long, long shot. All you would have heard was wind. There was no engine sound at all from that distance. This would be very boring to watch with wind sound for over a minute of the video.
