Steam & Excursion > UP 3985 7-30-1992 EB Elko,Nev Departure For Sure!

These shots show 3985's front engine articulating towards us, through the curves and switches, then she pulls right up to our position for a few moments, waiting for clearance to get rolling onto the mainline.  Lynn Nystrom, and Steve Lee are seen here, and I had my painted sign on display for them, that said "Thank Yooo! Uncle Pete and Crew!"  Then in #3 Video, I am startled by 3985's whistle!..(Some smoke coming from side of camera's view is actually from my damn ciggarette!)..What a great day to document!, Plus a few hours later is when I caught 3985 storming up Pequop grade, east of Spruce siding.

Boy, that's some great video, and it makes me miss the 3985 even more.  

I agree!
