    I still have pictures of 3985 the very last time it came through Indiana around October or November of 1992 and stopped in our town of Vincennes. They stayed for about an hour and I was able to get a picture standing in front of it, my head no higher than the top of what i think most call the cattle catcher part of the pilot. Man it was massive.

      @southwestvirginiarailfan729 2 місяці тому

      @@rogerlaurel2363 Appreciate your feedback, but I have no interest in weathering up anything that wasn't already weathered when I bought it. This stuff costs too much to make it look bad, at least in my opinion. And technically they are just toys for adults at the end of the day. Most of the stuff on the flatcars are chained down, albeit not correctly. The only stuff that wasn't is the CAT equipment because I didn't have any chains to tie them down. I will get to it eventually. And I, nor most of anyone else in this club are rivet counter modelers, its our railroad, so we'll model it how we want.

    My name is Caleb Travis Scales. The Union Pacific 3985 Challenger steam engine, steam locomotive and steam train is the best steam engine of all time! The Union Pacific 3985 is at the number one spot on my Favorite Steam Engines, Steam Locomotives And Steam Trains list! I would absolutely love to work for The Union Pacific Railroad and be able to work on the Union Pacific 3985 Challenger. I also love to hear a steam engine blow its own whistle!

    It's important to keep as many of these old steam engines in operation as possible and maybe even create new modern steam engines. The diesel engines are great, but what happens if oil production stops, we experience an EMP attack, or suffer under a major coronal mass ejection from the sun? The effect is the same. Diesel engines will permanently quit operating. Steam engines have no electronics to destroy and can be configured to use wood, coal, or oil to keep goods moving across the country.
