Remember that Super Bowl run in 2004, that came out less than a month before it left for left Cheyenne!

That's what they portray on the flyer. There is ALWAYS a Caveat with any promotion: "Take whatever is represented with at least one grain of salt." Yes, they illustrate a double-header, but the text just says a steam trip. It could be either the 3985, the 844, or MAYBE both. The 844 has been in the Cheyenne backshop for five years and is just now getting its legs back (break-in movements). The Terry Ranch trip is a way for the UP Steam Operation to make some money on the annual Denver Post-Cheyenne Frontier Days Special, signals the opening of the famous rodeo every year. The steam engine(s) will make a ferry run to Denver on Thursday or Friday July 21/22. The DPS run will take place on Saturday (return trip may be after dark), and the UPHS trip to Cheyenne will act as the return ferry run on Sunday.

As for now it is scheduled to do a double header with 844 Denver to some ranch on the Wyoming Colorado border in July. Tickets are only being offered to UPHS members now I think some time late in may they will sell off any remaining seats.

Missed it the last 2 years and wondering if it will be passing thru Arkansas this year.
