Western Railroad Discussion > 844 - no, not THAT one! The other one!Date: 04/28/17 09:44 844 - no, not THAT one! The other one! Author: RRChuck Ex U.P. GP-30 844. Had a photographer come out to do a night shoot Monday. Pretty dramatic. Took over an hour of shooting as he painted each element with light! Remember night photo shoots where someone would run around in the dark shooting off umpteen flash bulbs? Same principle. Photo by T.Nathan Grant.
Chuck/Las Vegas P.S. the GP-30 runs great. New paint job. www.nevadasouthern.com  Date: 04/28/17 10:09 Re: 844 - no, not THAT one! The other one! Author: RyanWilkerson Wow, impressive!

When did you guys finish the repainting of the 844? Date: 04/28/17 21:59 Re: 844 - no, not THAT one! The other one! Author: wa4umr Where's the "LIKE" button when you need one? Very nice.
