UP 9000 is NOT a Decapod. Decapods were a 2-10-0 wheel arrangement. UP 9000 is a 4-12-2 and known as the Union Pacific type. Albeit the only 4-12-2 preserved. Not too many years ago, we USED to be able to sit in the engineer and firemans seats on the 3415. Not sure what happened there. Otherwise, excellent look back!
30:58 I went to see that big yellow caboose on 12/10/2023. It says, "WT 52300." I wasn't allowed to go inside because they are afraid it will fall off its supports.
Very nice video Colin. A bit sad that the trucks are still separated from the caboose but also glad that they have it preserved after the city of Montclair needed it relocated. Wonder if the museum also got the crossing that was with the caboose?
Gordon was the First one to see Harold. Harold thinks he could go faster than me I” show him. Next it was Henry’s turn Sir topham hatt thinks Harold is important because he is more important then Me well He’s” Not Harold cannot fly through tunnels. Percy stopped by a Signal on his branch line near a feild Where sheep were grazing Harold huffed For a while then buzzed away. I know what he is doing he’s counting sheep! And Percy puffed along his line feeling much Better about things.
Nice! I love this place for its history and its locomotives!

I think the double diesel was once used in 1998 to help the 844 steam locomotive pull the Cheyenne Frontier Days Special
UP 6915 was donated to RailGiants in 1985 so UP 6906 likely did it since UP owned that one long after they got rid of the rest until 2022

Wait what crossing?
By the way you pull the bell on the diesel
Nobody understands what you're trying to say because you can't use proper grammar.
