Nice. I'm still confused (since I was a kid) about which one of those damn rocks is the real Haystack Rock!
Hope you're doin' something fun.

Chased the 4014 for a little ways today. It was a couple hours from home and my timing was bad, almost missed it. Literally parked as it was coming around for the bend. Ended up stopping at the bend for a quick lube job

:shock:

Does this BB run near you often? I am only a partial train nerd, but I am certain I would find myself chasing down 4-8-8-4s any chance I could if they came anywhere near me!! :lol:

It lives in Cheyenne Wyoming which isn't too terribly far but it just ran a excursion to Cali and back. It's getting ready to head east for a few stops next

There is a tracker that shows where she is currently

And this webpage shows it's upcoming schedule

Cheers Dadio,
You cant see the swarms of sandflies that come out at some times of the day,
This was the next day at the Blue Lake, Saint Battens, Central Otago light is hard to replicate.

Not for nothin', but that's just before Jason gets his iconic hockey mask. It's really not a thing until well into part 3. Just sayin'... :mrgreen:
