Great video, that was one of the best videos of the 844 I have ever seen, 5 stars and favorited. I bet it was crazy trying to get to those spots.

I got to make this trip when I was a teenager (early 70's) in a private car. My high school love's Dad, Sam Girdler, owned Solano Railcar in Oroville, California. Someone owned the railcar, or maybe they were fixing it at Solano Railcar, & we got to tack it on to the train & make the trip to Portola.  I remember listening to the sound of the train all night, next to my boyfriend.. I can't believe my parents let me go on an over-nighter.. It was pretty romantic.

Very nice chase. Love the locations. FRC is one of my favorite routes.

I chased 844 across Nevada and California. I shot it on days it ran from Elko, Nevada to Sparks, Nevada. I also chased it across Donner Pass and the Feather River Canyon.

When I chased 844 through the Feather River Canyon it got it at the following locations:

Poe

Tobin

Keddie

Graeagle

Portola

I would have gotten it at more spots however, it was a 2 lane road through the canyon and someone decided they wanted to pace along side the train in their car and hold up the rest of the crowd.
