844(4) at Greeley, 1976.
Author: tolland

Here's another photo from the family collection, date on the rear says 1-17-1977 but in looking at the photo the 844 is displaying a 1976 bicentennial flag. I think this is northbound just south of the Poudre river bridge in Greeley, the track to the right of the engine is the old BN Greeley branch wye which is now disconnected and partially disassembled. The 844 returns to Cheyenne this weekend, wishing those guys a great trip!

That's when she looked the best, in my opinion.

WAY too much silver and trimmed out pieces all over the place. IMO.

Great photo, Jim, of one of my
all-time favorite locomotives!
IMO she looks gorgeous -- and you
got her rods down!

Margaret (UP 844(4) fan, too!)
