I can tell you from personal experience, the people who would have been in Mt. Union working the two shifters there, #3 and #6, would have had a much better time. Again, it's because of the cab size. Both were/are standard gauge engines and are a good bit roomier inside the cabs.
I sat in the engineer's spot and had some pictures taken of me looking like I was about to back the loco out of the roundhouse. I had my hands on knobs, wheels, levers, and anything else the engineer would have used and I even got a couple from outside the enginehouse looking in with me sticking out of the engineer's window with my hand on the throttle.
That was a lot of fun. I don't think I ever put my pictures from the Fall Spectacuar up, now that I think about it. Nothing too terribly interesting. Most of them never got send to me
