Steam & Excursion > Echoing Thru the Meadow Valley WashDate: 10/06/19 23:56 Echoing Thru the Meadow Valley Wash Author: ats90mph Many years ago when the restoration of 4014 was announced, there were two locations that I was determined to see "Him". Sherman Hill, WY and the Meadow Valley Wash, NV. After fulfilling my first goal, I drove to Caliente, NV to fulfill the second. Admittedly, I was disappointed when I learned that the Caliente Sub trip was going to be a Westbound (downhill only) affair. However I found a little uphill section between Stine and Boyd, and made the best of it. Hope you enjoy the results...

I regret panning with the engine, as the thru girder bridge blocked the running gear, but here is the video anyhow...

The "hot" eastbound manifest that "forced" 4014 into the siding at Kyle. All and all it was an excellent meet, the heavier uphill train kept moving, and 4014 was delayed 5 Minutes at most...
