This was obviously intended for general public and not expert rail fans who know the entire story of the UP steam program so it should be viewed in that light.
It looks like they released the video feed that was being seen at the station before the reporter went on the air so obviously that part was more casual and relaxed and they didn't expect that anyone outside the station would see it.
The reporter might not have had much time to prepare for the live shot. She probably had another assignment before coming over to UP to set up and didn't have time to be a complete expert on steam engines.
The part of the interview after the live shot was just raw video that could have been cut up and the best parts used in a stand up "package" for a story later in the evening so it's not fair to be so critical
