Southern Pacific GS-4 Daylight Steam Locomotive 4449 at East Java

In recognition of 4449's first day on the return trip to Portland, Oregon, I decided to upload another video of the 4-8-4, battling the summit of Marias Pass. Some LOCATION info: This shot was taken on 7/5/09 on the summit of Marias Pass. We are located at East Java, just a few miles out of Essex. Behind the camera is the siding at East Java. A 3 unit all GEVO power move is waiting on the siding for 4449 to clear. Enjoy!

Black Bute is several hundred miles away from here, on the California-Oregon border. This is in Montana.
