Title: UP 1996 visit to PA coverage
Post by: dschlegel on November 25, 2012, 06:25:42 PM
Hi guys!

The day before Thanksgiving, the Southern Pacific heritage unit lead the 212 through my neck of the woods on the Reading line. I posted the video on Trainorders already(I can't believe I got selected for video of the day, I am not a good photographer let alone videographer) and am in the process of putting it up on YouTube now.

The following day after a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat (my friends and I decided to take out the garbage.... Oops) I trekked over to Alburtis on the Reading line and caught the unit again trailing on the 211. Enjoy!

As soon as I get the YouTube link up I'll post it in this thread.

Finally, thank you to all the provided heads up information for this train!!! It blows my mind how far we've come with technology since I first got on the Internet back in the fall of 1996(from a computer in a USAF tent at PSAB in Saudi Arabia). Who would've thought we'd have the Internet at our fingertips wherever we found ourselves in just a decade or so and could post real time sightings of neat trains!

Why not? I always thought it'd be neat to paint up an Aerostar like a P42.
