Some years ago a docent at CSRM told me the 4294 is missing many parts. This would pose a challenge, not impossible, but extra work and expense.
How about bringing the Santa Fe northern #2926 from

Many will think I am crazy for this but Gallup, NM.
You are on the TRANSCON and the town has Amtrak service. You are a couple of hours from Albuquerque, 3 hours to Durango and Williams, 4 hours

This is terrible news for a lot of western steam locos such as
the ATSF 3751, ATSF 2926, SP 4449, SPS 700, and MILW 261.
SP 4449 just got done with her 1472 day--15 year boiler work last year 2015

Great rail trips and great rail traditions?
Will 3751 be making the trip to San Berdo this year? I had heard or misheard or picked up somewhere that the reconstruction of platforms on the north

Define "far from pristine". If you mean faded paint and missing parts from the diesels, you're right, as many of the diesel locomotives reportedly were stripped of usable parts before being sent to CS

Safe to assume BNSF is asking to much or did NM break it's deal?
At what point would it not pay BNSF to drop the cost? If they keep it, to what benefit? Railbanking? Scrap?
That's really sad

I'm curious as to why it was called a "Casey Jones" excursion. The Casey Jones is associated with a 4-6-0 wheel arrangement and the 2926 was much larger.

Speaking of 4-8-4's, how many are around that have run excursions but no longer do, such as Cotton Belt 819 (we won't restrict this to the west coast), N&W 611, C&O 614, GTW (OC) 6325, all of the Read
