Nice to see he is still kicking. Also, can you guess what movie he was in without looking it up?

I know,,,,,,,,,without "looking it up"!
Wow. Doyle has aged better than I have. I met him in that cab Summer 1984 in El Paso. I complemented him on his and the 4449's performance climbing the hill East out of Benson and his response was: "Oh, we stormed that Anthill!"
How old is Doyle now, like Lew, I met Doyle in El Paso, very nice gentlemen, was always willing to answer questions. I felt like I had died and gone to Heaven when he invited me up into the cab. Terrific locomotive and a great engineer and you can't beat that Daylight paint scheme.
