Nathan Beauheim  Date: 01/12/04 14:55 Re: UP 3985 in Nebraska Author: tolland I saw that Helicopter shadowing the 3985, but didnt' know it was a Denver news outlet's copter. Have to watch the news for some pictures and I'll post some of my own later.
Best, Jim Burrill Date: 01/12/04 15:01 Re: UP 3985 in Nebraska Author: nycman Uh, oh, stand by for verbal abuse from the usual suspect helicopter-haters.

Date: 01/12/04 18:54 Re: UP 3985- C ya later, Steamus. Author: tolland 3985 heads off to the east from Lodgepole. They'll arrive at North Platte in a little over an hour in all likelihood, making good time.

Not a stupid question at all, but ditch lights are not required on steam locomotives. Date: 01/12/04 21:40 Re: UP 3985- C ya later, Steamus. Author: UP6936 Heres 3985 coming into Lodgepole.

Jim, In your picture, Steve Lee looks like a new man, almost unrecognizable. Do you know how much weight he has lost? Date: 01/13/04 11:16 Re: Steve Lee Author: tolland cdub Wrote:

I myself need to take note of Steve's changes in diet and activity to prevent a heart attack. I suspect weight loss will come as a result of my new job. Date: 01/13/04 11:50 Re: UP 3985 in Nebraska Author: nathan314 Yeah, the copter was Denver news. I didn't see any footage on Denver's CBS station (Channel 4) at 10, though Cheyenne's CBS station (Channel 5) had some aerial shots.
Anyways, here is a shot of 3985 under blue flag in Lodgepole. This shot also shows that my camera knew what day it was, even if I didn't. Nathan  Date: 01/15/04 11:49 Re: UP 3985 in Nebraska Author: ZAPATERO Here is 3985 at Steele City NE. Should have the rest of my pics up at http://www.shoeysrailpics.com/
