A special DRGW passenger train was ran on the Santa fe Pacific this July. The local railfans told us that it was chartered by a wealthy Los Angeles couple named Paul and Patti D AKA world famous "P Daddy". We met Paul at the Wasatch Tower yard office where a crew change was made. The train consist was a F-7 set, baggage car and a dome observation. The baggage car was reportly for Mrs. D's extensive Red Hat collection. Paul told us he also hired the renowed Chef Giada to cook for
them. The trip was taking them from Salt Lake City to Chicago to visit their daughter. Paul, a huge baseball fan, would take in some baseball games at Wrigley field. We said our goodbyes and told
Paul we would chase the train through the city. left: The beautiful dome car. below the train leaves Wasatch Tower.
The train heads east near Utah Oil
Great shot of the train at DRGW Jct.
We wave goodbye to Paul and Patty hoping they
enjoy their dinner and trip.
