Well worth the time if in the Omaha area. Les Jarrett and I did one of our 12 side-trips in the first "America By Rail" video "The Heartland". The Austrian engine put on quite a show. This was done in 1994, so it would show the steep grades and that sucker put on a show. We rode it and shot various location, including a few animals along the way. Made for a "Different" side-trip in a rail video! Glad to hear its still going strong.
