What prompted this question?

Heaven only knows.

Are there actual murmurings of taking the trainset out again?

Absolutely not, what with current PTC requirements and BNSF in pretty deep trouble simply trying to meet customer demands, I can't BNSF management would even consider entertaining such an excursion. Besides, what sponsoring organization would/could pay for the 750 Million Dollar liability insurance?

I remember the time it was taken as far as Texas.

Wasn't that only the E5, not the whole train?
