Crossing Shasta Lake, entering some tunnels,
crosses another bridge & whistles for a crossing.

To this day, I hardly believe that trip happened, but it did an I was able to ride. The Shasta Daylight special or Dead fish Daylight to benefit the city of Dunsmuir. 3 round trips from Redding to Mt Shasta city park on Labor Day weekend. The ride from Redding to Dunsmuir was amazing, as seen in your video, with no helper and a full Daylight train with 4449. Fantastic weekend of steam on the Shasta Division in Dunsmuir.
Thanks for the flashback.

Except, isn't the video posted of the return trip from the 1991 California State Railroad Museum 10th anniversary "Railfair '91"? I sure don't remember doing that "fish kill" trip in 1991.
