IF YOU COULD BRING BACK ANY FALLEN FLAG...

  • I've been learning a little about the history of the Western Pacific lately. It had a run of nearly 80 years before being swallowed by the UP. Among its achievments was the very popular California Zephyr which featured the Budd Company vista dome cars. I think I traveled on this train as a kid - we made one cross country trip by train and I remember the domes.
  • Rio Grande Southern, Denver & Rio Grande Western narrow gauge, Silverton Railroad, Silverton Northern, Virginia & Truckee.

    At least one of these is actually is being rebuilt.
  • the Feather River Route

    Man - I would like to see western pacific silver and orange on new diesels. Plus they would run fan trips with restored zephyr cars....

    PS - I have been a committed UP modeller for years, and now thinking of switching to WP....

  • Would love to see the Southern Pacific again; I grew up watching their locomotives on the Northwestern Pacific in Nor. Cal; lots and lots of SD-9's! 8-10 of these on the point of 100+ cars southbound through Loleta, CA was pretty impressive as a kid. The tracks through town were about 10' from the curb on Main St., so you really got up close and personal.

    Would also be nice to see the C&NW, D&RG, WP, BN, and ATSF.
