@ptz593443x thank you. im glad you guys like it. it was so fun to see this machinery . something from 1944 running in 2011 . union pacific never retired the 844
Yes i got depressed. never seeing such a thing due to my age , I was born in frikin 64 .. just to have seeing these with some frequency must have been the cats ass. This is real railroading, i was a conductor for six years .. i still think it would have been something else in those days... today it's work. your whole vid is crammed with a lot goin on. very sweet.
@UPTRAIN yeah i mispoke. i thought i reconinzed your truck from flickr. cant wait to see ur shots. i saw u photograph a signal on the saint joe sub as i was going home down that way.
@TezJ16 thanks , the shot of its steam defflectors glinting in the morning sun and all the steam as it crossed the bridge was really a majical moment , i couldnt feel my legs.
im glad you enjoyed it. gawd chasing something from 1944 is fun!!!
@masterownerlml i had complete idea. its schedule said for it to leave at 6 am. it was returning towards cheyenne early due to flood warnings. this was it with mopac herritage unit pulling the little rock express train.

Did you know UP 844 was coming, or did you just get a lucky break out of the blue.
