Saw 3985 just north of Garnett, KS on 6/22. Me and a cuple of other "foamers" from Emporia, KS were trackside as she flew past at 12:20PM. While we waited for it a southbound coal train went by, 2 units on the front one on the back. Then we saw 3985 coiming around the curve. She was on us in a second, and whooshed on by. I tried to pull out and chase her north-bound but ran into road construction so that was the end of that. I had seen her in KC on the south-bound leg. She was parked at Union Station in KC ( a great place to watch UP action). I'm still amazed at the size of this engine!!! Oh well, an hours wait for a few seconds of thrills......but it was worth the drive from Ft. Scott, KS. <br />
