Nostalgia & History > Amtrak #5 at Sparks led by an SP SD40T2Date: 04/12/07 07:51 Amtrak #5 at Sparks led by an SP SD40T2 Author: drew1946 Date: 04/12/07 10:13 Re: Amtrak #5 at Sparks led by an SP SD40T2 Author: FGS Drew,
As always, I enjoyed the view and seeing it made me think of Tom LeBroke who was an SP engineer out of Sparks. I think he'd retired by that time. But it made me think of him, a good man he was.

I don't recall seeing too many Cotton Belt Locomotives leading on an Amtrak Train. Thanks for sharing

I bet all the host railroads then were gettin' fed up with leasin' their units to help Amtrak out!
