Yahno, looking at it closer, that might actually be Elk Run Road in Catlett. (Based on the siding and buildings in the background.) My wrongocity.

I would like to see those two in action. Not on video, but in person. That would be amazing!!

LONG LIVE 844, 4449, & 3985!!!!!!!

YEs! That would be nice... good thing UP still runs 844 and 3985, hope they do for a long time

Excellent videos. I think technically the train was northbound as the NS mainline through Culpeper is considered N-S rather than E-W.

what a beautiful engine. I remember chasing that thing all the time in the 80s with my dad. Too bad they can't afford to run the excursions anymore. My son would love it. Thanks for the video.
