Union Pacific 844 at Martinez, Calif., 4/20/2009

Union Pacific 844, a 4-8-4 Northern type steam locomotive, on the UP's Western Heritage Tour. The morning of 4/20 the locomotive, one diesel, and a matched set of yellow streamliner cars were coming down from Roseville, on the way to Oakland where the train will be on display. Here the train is coming downhill off the bridge and is about to zoom past the Martinez station. I used a mini-DV camcorder and a regular digital camera and combined the footage.
