Thanks, and you're welcome.

Nice run thanks all went well, thanks for sharing.

You're welcome!

Thank´s a lot for this nice scenario!

Thanks, and you're welcome.

Excellent run. Good AI. Love the Cab Forward. Really enjoyed it, thank you

You're welcome. :)

A nice, little, simple scenario to put the Cab Forward to some enjoyable work.
Exactly what I needed. Thanks. :)

lol im kidding bro!

well if you want to talk more we can just message

yeah

yea but it seems a little short but it takes like a hour becuase of the different speed restrictions

I hope so too, it's a good route

i hope it happens. its my favorite route

Yeah, I saw his comment.

haha oh i heard from thomas that he is trying to do a session on the new york bergan line

I know that feeling

i want to see it so bad but its in california

yes

yea and isnt that one in a museum?

Yeah, and only one survives, the 4294.

nooooo in real life

rsc made the cab forward pack a full 30 years before the first videogame console?

Oh, the Cab Forwards go way back, but this one was built in the 1940s

no, i mean the engine looks like its from the N64 era, while the engine i currently own and use looks more like something worth my time.

I think I might know what you mean, this is the unweathered Cab Forward.

by the way, the graphics look different, is this the updated version? or the original?

You're welcome!

can i change it to another number?
like 666 as the engine and 1337 as the tender?
lol jk, thanks bro!

Yeah, I didn't mind the talk, and how to change the number: double click on the tender, then you will see a tab on the right side of the screen, then you should see the number of the tender if you move your mouse to the tab, then you can change it to the number that matches the locomotive

4 pages of random trivia about important western engines, i love it!

how did you set the train's number? its been bugging me since i got the cab forward pack that the tender has a different number than the engine.

Won't happen right away though once 4014's up and running. Following the rebuild of 4014, 3985 will then be next on the 'overhaul to-do list', as 3985's firebox got damaged from use of an experimental burner and it was getting awfully close to her 1472 FRA inspection requirements anyway. The rebuild of 4014 will permit the Steam Crew to like try evolutionary improvements to reliability that can then likely be applied to 3985 so both locos can spend more time out on tracks hauling excursion passengers occasional full-revenue freight runs and less time in the Cheyenne shop.

Yeah.

Hopefully, following the restoration of 4014, UP may decide to fix up 4294 for Donner Pass operations, and also as a means of further developing their skill in scratch fabricating parts for these steamers.

4014 was restored to operated for the fantrip.

And Big Boy 4014 is being restored.

3985 was been taken out of service.

3985 is now under overhaul.

844 and 3985 travels to Rail Fair at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento.

844 has also teamed up with 3985.

4449 and 844 doubleheading on The Puget Sound Excursion.

And 4449 has also doubleheaded with UP 844 from Everett to Tacoma, both in Washington. This happened from May 18-19.

700 doubleheading with 4449 from Portland, Oregon to Wishram, Washington along The Colubia River Gorge and return in 2005.

And usually pulls the Holiday Express.

The 700 was restored in 1990.

Yep, a Baldwin steam locomotive that was built in May 1938, retired in May 20, 1956, and donated to Portland Oregon in 1958, where she sat for almost 20 years.

Anothern Steam Locomotive Spokane Poartland & Seattle E-1 4-8-4 No. 700.

That's because of the overhaul, she will eventually return. (that's gonna be a while)

Sp 4449 was taken out of service.
