I think Skip meant the #44 rebuild (the finger betrays on the keyboard)
I sure would love to see, more than #8 running again, #'s 40 & 44 doubleheaded across the Devil's Gate High Bridge. Have seen photos of this, but to see it in person would be increbible.
Not to mention the sights and sounds those two engines could create together...
You could probably feel the valley shake as they blast upgrade.
Doubleheaded shays on the Loop - awesome
Doubleheaded 40 & 44 - heaven on earth
Ah, sweet dreams...
Shane
