Awesome Old Machine

Yesterday I got to see something as good as an OEM Hemicuda. 1941 Steam Locomotive came thru Devils Lake, ND and stopped for photo op and lube. Southern Pacific 4449 was returning to home roundhouse at Portland from tour to Chicago. It's a beautifully restored old locomotive a 4-8-4 arrangement that was puling several old passenger cars. Nothing like the sound of a true steam whistle. Great rolling history.
