Steam & Excursion > Happy 4th! UP 844+6936 Blasting Up King Hill, Idaho, 7-4-90

(Re-post) How about some high powered Fireworks for your 4th! 30 years ago (OTD yesterday).
UP 1243 is on the flat car, I caught the Idaho/Wyoming Centennial UP special heading home (Eastbound) from Boise on the 4th of July, at King Hill, Idaho, just East of Glenns Ferry, Both 844 and 6936 were probably at full throttle, and put on a great show of UP Heritage Fleet power this day.

Note: You can Hear both 844 and 6936 working in tandem if you listen with Earbuds, Headphones or home Surround sound system with Subwoofer.

Happy 4th of July Weekend to TO members and Families, And especially to TO Admin for this Wonderful Railroad Website!

Now that is an interesting train Jim! Great video, loved hearing both engines working. Are those CNW cars in the mix?

Sorry for late reply, Yes Nathan, a few CNW in the mix, I am working on another video segment from 6-29-90, I think it shows some quick views of those cars.

I wish they would bring that two-tone gray livery back, I think it makes her look really slick!
