Nostalgia & History > 4449 coming off the Pit River Bridge April 1977Date: 06/23/22 10:21 4449 coming off the Pit River Bridge April 1977 Author: photobob 4449 leads the "Amtrak Transcontinental Steam Excursion' off the Pit River Bridge over Lake Shasta. 4449 was returning to its home base in Portland after its run with the American Freedom Train. There is a post on the Western Board about this bridge. Here I added a photo of it at La Moine which should solve the big diesel question.

Curious what you were standing on.
