Russ...my first experience with Dunsmuir was 1989 as I got a cab ride in 4449 from Black Butte to Dunsmuir. My wife and daughter met me there and we continued our chase toward Oakland and LA.

In 2012 I edited some neat footage showing an early 50's fantrip southbound(railroad East I think) arriving in Dunsmuir with a Cab Forward and swapping engines with 4-8-4 4468!!! Must have been good times, eh!!
