The festivities of Railfair 99 and the NRHS & R&LHS convention. Mainline trips are featured including the 844's high speed trip to and from Tehama. Our highly experienced camera crews traveled the length of California and into Oregon to follow the big locomotives including Santa Fe 3751, Southern Pacific 4449, and the Union Pacific's 844 and 3985 as they roamed through the West.
@KUNYSZZ tube failure happens most of the time but boiler failure is still boiler failure except #844 was not at full steam when it happened if you watched Extreme Trains it was the first time she came out since the 99 incident from 2000 to 2007 the train was pulled by #6936 or #3985 Steam Shop is doing their best to keep the old girl alive #844 is still the queen of the rails and the Living Legend

@geomodelrailroader 844's boiler didn't really blow up, she suffered a boiler tube failure!

Railfair 99 almost killed #844 her boiler blew up hence the diesel pulling the cars at 1:09. #844 is still running lets hope she does not have her boiler blow up again.
