A Breezy and COLD 844 Experience.
Author: qman

The Campo, CO. water tank felt "unneeded" as 844 blew right by.

Pausing outside Boise City, OK. we waited, in the WIND !!

After a meet at Kerrick, OK. 844 departs into storm clouds.

Absolutely fantastic photo's! Wide open country, cold, windy and some moisture. Add the UP 844 and that is about a good as it gets! Plus on tracks it may never run on again! Unbelievable!

The drumhead shot of the train going away at Conlen, TX is EPIC! Great shooting Q, along with a great time chasing with you and the gang!
