That is just so awesome. Color me envious. Very, very envious.
I had the opportunity to ride behind a similar Northern class locomotive back in what must have been the early '90's. The Southern Pacific 4449 was up here in our area, so my wife and then maybe four year old son took a dinner ride down the Yakima River Valley from Ellensburg to Yakima. Or maybe he was only three... At any rate, somewhere tucked away in an old photo album I have photos of us sitting on the locomotive. Priceless memories...
