Union Pacific 4-8-4 steam engine numbered 844 leads its special over the famous Cajon Pass. The last UP 844 ran over Cajon was when LAUPT had it 50th anniversary and it raced up the pass with the Daylight, SP 4449. Today, people from all around came out to see this spectacular sight. 844 left from West Colton yard to Yermo. Crossing from the UP Palmdale Cutoff to the Cajon Subdivision at Keenbrook and then charged up the 2 percent grade to summit. Then across the flat high speed desert land to Yermo.
