[@HERO-mh2rr]

i hope those 2 steam train are going to be fine and working again soon. i have read and watch a video about those two UP 3985 Challenger and UP 5511. they said that they are going to get those two fully repaired and working again on there own power. and they will both burn oil.

3985 has used oil since 1990

Did I see a CNW F unit in this further west?

Yea, it had a different destination near here.
