My most memorable trip was a cab ride in the SP 6051. The classic E9 locomotive owned by the California state railroad museum was used to film a remake of the Hitchcock classic "Shadow of a doubt" in 1992 on the NWP . I rode from Petaluma to Willits .When we reached Redwood Valley I rode in the cab to Willits . When we began climbing the three percent grade to Ridge it really starting blowing out the cobwebs. Alot of soot from years of crawling around at low speed blew out. I may be wrong but I don't think that engine had worked that hard in years!
