Saturday, September 22, 2007 at Brinkley, Arkansas. Of special interest today was UP 8444, the regular UP unit that was displayed along with UP's six Heritage Locomotives in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 30, 2007. Also, NS 6666 *** UP 8505, 4254, 2304 *** CSX 265. Plus a short MPEG sound movie of a track-speed train passing the depot from inside the ticket office.
