844 rides again... (EDited)
Author: santafe199

Considering the overwhelming opinion boiling out of the Steam forum since last December (Kool-Aid excluded), it would appear that pictures do indeed speak a thousand words.

Sorry I don’t have any shots for you from 2014, but…………………

I think it looked better with the red light on the front end too. Why was it removed?

Maybe 'dear leader' thought the red light meant stop so he did.

Thanks for posting. Especially like the perspective of your first pic. Maybe one of
these days this old beauty will be "out and about." Good things come to those who
wish for the best outcome.

Perhaps the answer lies in the lyrics of "Roxanne":
"You don't have to put on the red light
[. . .]
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy"

Is that an American Flyer engine?

American Flyer engines do not have smoke lifters and centipede tenders. Also, all of my American Flyer 332, 334DC and 336 Northern engines still make smoke and run!!

In the 3rd & 4th images, I pray to God that isn't an ISIS terrorist manning the Johnson bar or that may be the last of the UP 844!

Because a working steam locomotive can look however it needs to look to be running in the US in 2014 and if that's...........wait, never mind. Doesn't apply here.
