QUOTE: Originally posted by kschmidt I believe the Genesis unit is for HEP, however I think each car could run with its own generator. Also because this is technically an AMTRAK excursion being pulled by #261. Amtrak's insurance is what is making the trips possible, otherwise the ticket prices would probably double or triple. Another reason for the Amtrak unit. They watered the train in LaCrosse, but between the two tenders there 45,000 gals of water capacity. As far as shots, the east side of the Amtrak is a pretty nice shot, the locomotive would be on a pretty tight curve, it would also be whistlng for the grade crossing. There is small parking lot just before the bridge. Keith Schmidt
