Michael, thank you for posting the video of 165. When it was at the Alameda County fairgrounds, I did some painting on it. I had nothing to do with the infamous blue paint that was applied after my time there. Over the years, I also made some small donations to the project. Great to see the results of the restoration.

I miss the caboose, I really miss the guys in the Caboose! Of course I was a little kid the last time I saw a caboose go by. At 4:00 we would run to the end of the block to watch the train go by. The guys in the Caboose would always toot the air whistle for us! That's a big deal at 6 years old!

Did the tree uproot did the tree get cut down? Did the tree just break off from it? What kind of tree was it? Shouldn’t there couldn’t there be another vehicle checking the tracks before big boy comes up through the line?

The footage is super grainy due to the fact that the railroad police were blocking the tracks, this video is taken from a hill about 300 feet from the front of the locomotive, this is as close as anyone could get, the locomotive will have scars on the front pilot and a dent in the cylinder until it returns to Cheyenne

I would personally prefer 94, because I love 4-6-0's, but it is just as likely to be run again as 334, as the WRM currently has no plans to restore it, as far as I know.

Actually a decent amount, 26, 94, 164, 165, and 334 are all still around, 165 is the only one of them to be under steam in the 21st century however
