UP purchasing new steam locos

[simulatortrain]

Tip it's april second time to put April Fools in the title and in the original post.

I'm glad I get off the internet April 1st I find it to be the worst day ever. Especially to those who are looking for real news. April Fools day has, while sometimes funny, lost it's touch in the last few years due to jokes going a step too far or a step not far enough. This would of been much better if there had been an actually article.

If someone had actually made an article, I would have. That's why I put the Omaha NE at the beginning.

A oddly related UP factoid: UP is the only U.S. Class I railroad never to have fully dieselized. No. 844 has been kept on their active loco roster up to this very day.

Actualy I think Up took her off the roster in like early 2000s or somethin.
