Do you know that you can take training (NPI) to be a fireman or engineer at the
Nevada Northern? I'd love to do that but I'm guessing it's pretty spendy.

Yes i know a man who buys local train stuff who works on those trains he volunters hes time just to do it. also you can pay to drive a steam loco also wouldnt that be the killer thing to do also. also here in utah the golden spike has the 2 locos meet head to head several times on saturday, you can volunter there also and work up to be the engineer to drive one the utah state parks run this. but i cant wait to ride on the Neveda Northern and maybe even pay to operate one of the steamers Dave
