Steam & Excursion > UP 844 on BNSF rails

Thought I post my pics and video of 844 making its way north by northwest on the FW&D out of Ft Worth on Friday 11/02/2012. Good decision to take the day off.

1) Leaving Saginaw TX from the Hwy 287 overpass. This is actually Haslet TX proper.

2) Appoaching Rhea siding at Wichita Falls TX.

3) E/B Loaded coal at Vernon TX. DPU motors bring up the rear. This was the first meet of the day for the 844 at Vernon.

First two pics are East Vernon TX.
Last photo leaving Vernon TX.

Vernon was the best photo opps, as the line is almost due west into Vernon.
