I remember seeing some old footage of a train bringing Wyo fans to Laramie on game day - anyone know about this?

It was called the "Treagle Train" and was sponspored by the Wyoming Eagle and Wyoming Tribune newspapers. Once a year, I think Homecoming, they'd load up a train in Cheyenne with a lot of big shots and businessmen and they'd go over the hill for the game. Of course, copious amounts of alcohol were consumed...
