Little too far for me but I'd love to see that. When I was a pre-teen and in the car with my granddad up in the San Joaquin Valley, he would honk at those guys driving steam locomotives in RR code . They always responded with a series of toots. Man that was a sight seeing those giants chugging along. Sometimes our speed on the highway was similar, so there was some time to look and watch. Most of the time we moved a bit faster and/or the RR tracks left being parallel to the road and went off in another direction. So sightings weren't that common.

Granddad worked for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe RR as a business agent.
