That's great! Should prove to be some interesting photographic possibilities. In light of continued dismal national economic conditions, I think that's nice that no curtailment of their steam/PR program seems imminent.

The BNSF continues to hire people in spite of the economy, but retirements probably contribute to this. We've had several classes of Conductor Trainees, and the extra boards continue to be depleted.

I wish my son and I could chase the UP special, but not enough time allowed off due to the Availability Policy. Hopefully, some folks here can post some shots!
