Nice video! Noticed it seemed to be using the 6 chime whistle more on this leg of the trip.

I was told they use the 6 chime at slow speeds only because it can't be heard as well when at speed.

@UnionPacificTrainMan1943 oh ok thanks. Sheesh, that's one heck of a last-minute call lol. I'll see if I can make it trackside tomorrow. I was hoping to get it at Birmingham.

Trust me, they were out in the hundreds today, you haven't live until you see 50+ people run down a steep hill to their vehicle and almost fall in the process

Sure would've loved to see 2816 during this tour, but I can't due to my schedule. At least I'll get a chance to see 4014 when she returns to California 2 months from now. Still, great video nonetheless.
