Railworks America

Only 19 more days left and counting before North Platte Railfest starts. A lot of activities will be there. Bus Tours, model train shows, locomotive exhibits, etc.
They will also have all 6 of the Union Pacific Heritage Units there, and maybe 3985, I say maybe because in the brochure that I got yesterday says that they will have UP 844 and 3985 there, 844 has boiler problems and 3985 has some work to be done on that engine, but that's what I heard. Anyways, who's going?

Good Morning:

The wife and I went last year and they put on a great show. The bus tour was around Bailey Yard and it was a hoot, there was a UP employ who guided the bus and answered any questions we had. If you get the chance don't miss it.

One of these years I'll make that trip. I spent some time there at the visitors tower a few summers ago and felt like a kid again.

On I-80 ive seen the Tower from the Highway, only the top of it.
But this will be the first time going there, leaving Saturday Morning, drive all the way from I-76 to merge onto I-80, get there and into our hotel, then who knows next, maybe some railfanning will do before the Railfest starts.
