Southern Pacific steam locomotive no. 4449 arriving at Oaks Park in Portland, Oregon, with the Oregon Rail Heritage Foundation's Holiday Express train on December 12, 2009. The 4449 operated on December 11-13, while the SP&S no. 700 powered the trains on December 4-6. Proceeds from the trips will help fund a new, permanent home for the City of Portland's three steam locomotives. See another view on railroadheritage.org.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
