Train Simulator 2020 - Southern Pacific Cab Forward - Short Freight From Truckee

Today we are driving through the mountains in the east of California - close to the border with Nevada. As you can tell from the title and thumbnail, the engine for this run is a Cab Forward steam locomotive, specifically AC-12 class No. 4294, which is currently preserved. The engine was built in March 1944, but only lasted 12 years in service - being retired in March 1956. Fortunately she became the only Cab Forward to survive into preservation. After cosmetic restoration in 1981, the engine was put on display in the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, and she's still there today. Our run starts in the yard at Truckee, and we are tasked with assembling an incredibly short freight train before heading over the mountains to Norden. The train consisted of just 11 wagons, which is far too short for a massive 4-8-8-2 articulated engine. I'll wager that the two SW1500's in the yard could have managed the train. After some major problems with keeping boiler pressure, I managed to get it under control and got the Cab Forward to Norden without any additional problems.
