UP 3985 7-15-1992 WB, Winnemucca, Nev. Depot Switching Part 1
Author: RailRat

Theres nothing like a Big Steam Engine to bring people and families together! In an otherwise non busy-UP Crew change point, or occasional Amtrak passenger place , I was amazed at the sudden clamore of activity here, after spending many solitary times at this location, documenting regular train operations. Video #1 shows 3985 sitting under highway overpass, while folks talk with (Lynn Nystrom?)/Bob Krieger. Video #2 shows some great slippage and late evening sun off side of 3985,while pulling train forward/back for overnight stay...And an onlooker with family that Is Not Steve Lee!?

Thanks for the additional posts. Glad you survived the 'crash'. Chased 3985 several times, it was always a wonderful and fun experience.
