The day's first service stop between Rock Springs and Laramie landed Big Boy 4014 and the Headin' Home tour in the tiny town of Wamsutter, Wyoming. This stop turned out to be an extra special one, because while in town, the steam team, as well as several Union Pacific PR Officials paused to designate Wamsutter as Train Town USA. The local school children were brought out to witness the train come through, as well as to watch the little ceremony. Here we see Union Pacific Steam Manager Ed Dickens discuss the steam program with the students, play some games, as well as discuss railroad safety. The PR officials also give a few remarks with the Wamsutter Mayor. It was a great service stop, and NVRRP was proud to record this historic event through Wamsutter. This video is brought to you by yours truly, with additional footage provided by NVRRP Executive Ken Valdez. Rate. Comment. Subscribe. ENJOY!!! Copyright Nick Valdez Railroad Photography 2014.
