    I got this video recently, and the footage of the cab ride at 95mph is really something else! The cameraman couldn’t keep the camera steady, though. And you get to see some interesting stuff inside the cab as well!

    My father was a Santa Fe Engineer for 34 years; and most likely ran all these Santa Fe engines pictured here. This is an outstanding Video. The F7 shown on the opening shot was my favorite behind the steam engine. When I went to work for the railroad we had several restored F7’s and I’ve spent many hundreds of hours riding in them. Good Job Here! Thanks for the memories
