Hopefully they’ll run 700 and 4449 on the Oregon Pacific trackage they acquired last year.

It would be nice, but that’s the equivalent of 611 at Strasburg. A big engine like that needs mainline caliber track to perform at its best.
4449 last saw the mainline in 2018 and 700 was last on a big mainline trip twenty years ago (Christ, I feel old…)

No, not even that. She doubleheaded with 4449 during the 2005 NRHS Convention (A trip I had the pleasure of riding!)

There’s not a lot of footage on that trip, sadly. Even my shaky-ass onboard footage is one of the rare POVs of that excursion.
700 led on the trip to Wishram and 4449 led the return to Portland.

Me personally, I don’t mind your shaky onboard footage. I’m just grateful there’s onboard footage of that excursion to begin with.
