4014 heading for Colton today!!

[CAZEPHYR]

It is nice to see a 4-8-8-4 (4014) back on a mainline heading to more inspections and display at Colton. It should be in Cheyenne in a month or so and then the work begins. CZ

Diesel 4884 pulled the  big boy  4-8-8-4.  That is a nice touch  UP  that no one has noted yet.

I noticed that as well and noted it on the other forums.  Surprised nobody else mentioned it or even acknowledged it!

I didn't know the Straburg Rail Road was involved.  Will they be turning the drivers on their wheel lathe?

Note that the Srasburg RR was chartered in 1832, thirty years before UP.  It has been fully operational since 1837.

The Long Island Rail Road was also chartered before Uncle Pete, but after Strasburg
