Gerlach Big Boy Engine whistle stop Tuesday 7/9

The Big Boy Steam Engine, the largest “successful”, I’ve seen it deemed, perhaps since it was not unique? There are a few days for research. It’s unique to be running now. To see and hear it a neat opportunity to experience such a large working historical object. I’m a going, I’m thinkin’. What do you wave at a train?

Tuesday, July 9
Winnemuca, Nev. to Portola, Calif.
Gerlach, Nev.
Main St. & Beechnut Ct.
Arrival
Depart
12:30 p.m. PT
12:45 p.m. PT

I think this will be so cool to see!

Interesting suggestions. I really appreciate that they do not involve shopping, or any sort of project. I will enjoy a cold pizza picnic at the water tower park, and hopefully choose wisely.
