I just looked at the Roanoke RailCam at 12:30pm EST and their business cars are sitting on the nearest track with what appears to be employees/families getting on or off. Over the past few days they had laid some gravel along the side of the track which I had no idea what it was for, but...
Union Pacific's business car "Cheyenne" brings up the rear of the 844 special at Hearst siding near Sunol, California. A very classy end to the UP special train and also to the 30 minute stop to view all three steam locomotives this morning.
A special indeed! Even the weather cooperated!
Actually it was two business cars dead in transit:
CN 1060 1949 "Sandford Fleming" Track inspection car &
CN 1059 1954 "Tawaw" Reception-Marketing car
Trailing CN 5456 & BCOL 766 on an intermodal.
PS. The clouds...
CN 5456 & BCOL 766 lead an intermodal with two business cars on it:
CN 1060 1949 "Sandford Fleming" Track inspection car &
CN 1059 1954 "Tawaw" Reception-Marketing car
I have "rosters" of them from each side, which I'll post on the forums over the next...
UP's DD40X heads down the Coast sub in southern California at Ortega Hill, just South of Santa Barbara, July '03.
