You know, I ran SD-90 mac diesels with digital air gauges and high speed commuter locomotives with modern braking systems.. but it was just running trains. There is nothing like running steam on a step grade with a heavy load... that is living the life of a steam!!!

I told my girlfriend that I was a railroader in diesel, but I was romantic in steam!!! LOL!!!
