From an old retired ATSF Locomotive Engineer, that is one great looking ALCO 4-8-4. 1948 to 1949 I've throttle jerked the Baldwin 2-6-2 and 1949 to 1950 the Baldwin 4-8-4, then Diesels to retirement. A very enjoyable memory :-)

Now a real UP commercial. Put a camera between the rails, and get a pic of the steamer racing past, then cut to a four unit diesel stack train, leaving in the haunting whistle. Better than the horrible UP commercials on Sunday morning TV!
