on trainz 2010 i used a 4449 used this whistle and removed her skirting

[madrabidfireman]

A skirtless 4449. Never thought I'd see this. Love it. Wish they would leave them off for a while.

[awvr767]

i love the whistle and the engine

[lionelkid456]

@ConnecticutProd OH SHUT UP!!!! Its an awsome whistle and it like YOUR MOM ON THE TOILET!!!!!!!!! XD

[Hyce777]

@ConnecticutProd That's an SP 6 chime from what I can tell. A great whistle.

[kr4449]

what year did your dad shot this?

[LNERMallard]

@ConnecticutProd Oh, c'mon! It's not THAT bad! It's actually a beautiful whistle, it's just not that fitting for the locomotive it's on.

[ColumbiaAndHoodRiver]

@ConnecticutProd i happen to like the whistle. . . 

[tomAfisher]

@ConnecticutProd I know, it sounds like your mom!

[PNWRails]

@tomAfisher What whistle was the 4449 using at 7:21 - 7:35 anyways?

[trainmaster844]

@PNWRails - That would be the old SP 6-Chime that she had on the Fireman's side from 1981-1990. The regular whistle (NP 3-Chime) is heard from 8:04-8:25. The SP 6-Chime is again heard from 8:26-8:54.

[btomimatsucunard]

she almost looks like how she looked back in the late 50's

[SierraRailway]

Nice shots! Awesome whistle too! Gotta love the Daylight!

[sgtredbluered]

Like father, like son, eh! Nice retrospective.

[megatwingo]

Very nice loco and video. Thumbs up!  :)

[dwkcamman611]

Amazing video!!!

[ColumbiaAndHoodRiver]

love the whistle she has

[rht715]

my guess just prior to the bi centennial run-1974

[4449steam]

@rht715 Nope. After.

[trainmaster844]

@rht715 - nope, 1989 (about 15 years after the Freedom Train) - the paint you see on her is water-soluble, which means it could be easily washed off when need be.

[pdxsteam]

ghost train O_o haha

[thehellmantrain]

what year was this take in?

[trainmaster844]

@thehellmantrain - This was shot in 1989 - after 4449's trip to California for LAUPT's 50th Anniversary. "Come See The Paradise" was released in 1990, if I'm not mistaken.

[railfanatic844]

looks like a real steam locomotive

[rwhatzo]

Great video, I love the sound of the steam whistle, it sends chills up my spine.

[heidihobear]

i saw the film just to see 4449 . and it was there for like 3 mins and then they dont show it again

[tomAfisher]

@heidihobear Yeah, you can never have too much steam in a movie. Mt Rainier Scenic RR's coaches were also there. They came down to Portland with 2-8-2 #5, which made the trip on its own power.

[conncork]

She looks great Naked and Dirty 5 Star

[lionelkid456]

@conncork Is that all you care about?

[trainmaster844]

7:25 - That's the best that old SP 6-Chime on the fireman's side EVER sounded!

Very rare footage - thanks for uploading! :D

[davidsd40]

Still looks Good!



[Creeddrummer87]

The 4449 is still the most beautiful engine ever! Even with all the grime!

[4449steam]

Great video, man. It's seriously different to see Union Station that empty and open. AND THAT WHISTLE!

[F40PHR231]

@4449steam It was a great railfanning spot till MAX came in and ruined it. But on the plus side, we now have that pedestrian bridge over the tracks, so all is not lost. :)

[4449steam]

@F40PHR231 That's true. But still.....

[F40PHR231]

@4449steam Wonder if any of those F40s was the #231...

[4449steam]

@F40PHR231 I thought the exact same thing!
