700 Headed for Montana
Author: donnag

The SP&S 700 departed Vancouver, WA at 8:25am. She looked and sounded great as they headed east with the engineer responding to the dispatcher with "Next stop Wishram." Wishful thinking, but why not. By the time they reached EVAN, the train was doing 55! It was a beautiful sight!
Consist: 700, tender, tool car, BNSF 5471, one passenger car, one dome car.

.......Where are the rest of the cars at?! Picking those up in Wishram or Spokane?

Heh...I don't want to head out there just to see a 5 car steam train :P

They will be pulling the Montana Daylight Consist.....so it aint going to be one measly passenger train/specuil...plus there are suppose to be a pair of MRL helpers behind the units as well....at least the MRL blue will mesh with the back steam loco photo wise......hehehehehehe
