Thanks for the reminder, Jeff -

But it's gonna be a little tough getting her out to Promontory Point . . .    

I wonder if they'll make a one-time exception and allow either ex-S.P. #2472 or #4449 to join her in Ogden or Corinne or wherever they do decide hold the Golden Spike celebration.  After all, it IS just "One Big Rollin' Railroad" now.
