This episode on tonight in another hour:
Steam Train
Tuesday, December 9th at 10PM ET/9C
The Union Pacific's famous 844 steam locomotive, built in 1944, is the longest-running steam train in America. It still runs on UP's mainlines today. Matt rides the 844 on its annual outing, taking 750 rail fans from Denver to the biggest rodeo in the world in Cheyenne, Wyoming. This train is so popular that traffic jams form along the tracks when it runs, as people "chase the train." This episode also looks at the gold rush of the 1850s.

The Extreme Trains show on the UP 844 was pretty good, except that the host has GOT TO GO! He's way past annoying after a few shows of watching him.
I think I'll email the History Channel and say I'd like to buy the DVD of the show, but ONLY if they eliminate every scene where the host is talking!

Just be thankful that Billy Mays doesn't host the show!
I used to get paid for doing what all of you like to watch!
