This is just prior to the Jungo Runby video I posted a few days ago. Not sure if I posted this video before or not. Jim Baker Riverside, CA Edited 4 time(s). Last edit at 01/12/20 09:32 by RailRat.

Our fuel trucks carried #5 burner oil that was more viscous. Bob Krieger Cheyenne, WY Date: 01/12/20 07:00 Re: Here comes UP 3985 Memories#5 7-16-1992 Author: Mudrock That was interesting as we the passengers were still sleeping in the mote lat that point

Yes correct, I was wrong in my over-zealous narration, I think they fueled up the 3985 the evening before.

I even had a chance to "pester" the steam crew, the evening before, while they were trying to enjoy a sit down dinner at Winner's Inn, just bumped into them while I was working my evening pest route there!
