SP 4449 in American Freedom Train Livery, Hillsboro Oregon, June 2022

Shot with my first digital camera in 2 megapixel glory. Built by the Lima Locomotive works in May, 1941 and designed to haul the Southern Pacific's famous Daylight passenger trains, 4449 is one of the most well-known operating steam locomotives in the US.

Here the locomotive is seen in the American Freedom Train paint scheme. It wore this livery from early 2002 until fall 2004, when it was repainted in Daylight colors.
