The Gulf Coast Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society sponsors several excursions each year. Recently, they sponsored an excursion train pulled by Union Pacific Challenger #3985 from Houston to College Station. I took these photos before the train out-distanced me.

I was out of film. My brother-in-law, Denny Post of Lakeland, FL, and I were driving along the Katy Freeway when we saw this locomotive. Denny took the picture of this growler. Great job, isn't it. Morrison Knudsen
