Trainnews - volume 1 issue 32 - 11/26/08 - HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Editors Note - Please send newsworthy photos to trainnews@att.net, remember to include a description and you name
This is not newsworthy unless you consider that it has been 18 months since we in the Northwest have enjoyed mainline steam. Thanks to the Union Pacific bringing 844, and more importantly, their wonderful passenger consist, to join with Southern Pacific 4449 for a great doubleheader. May 19, 2007.
