Back in the Spring, I had to do a photo story for the photo portion of the "Reporting: Images" course at the University of Texas. I ended up doing it on Bert Dockall, former engineer for Santa Fe and Amtrak and current engineer for ASTA. I got to ride in the cab on the run up to Burnet and back. It was a ton of fun and certainly a pleasure to tell his story in this way. Hope y'all enjoy!

I just came across this thread. The historic photos are amazing!

By the way, just in case anyone’s interested, my contact is selling a few wheels and tires. If anyone’s interested, feel free to PM me.
