Give me any younger, experienced, FRA "certified" Engineer, male or female, that REALLY knows & understands train handling and their assigned district, plus the rules, and within an hour he/she could be taught how to run 4014, or any other large steam locomotive. That said, the current manager has stated more than once, that he is the ONLY "steam certified Engineer on the UP system".
