This wasn't just any video of Southern Pacific "Daylight" 4449 this was a video watching 4449 making her comeback on the High Iron & on the mainline. My MOST favorite famous American steam locomotives are the following Southern Pacific "Daylight" 4449, Southern Pacific "War Baby Daylight" 4460, Southern Pacific cab forward 4294, Southern Pacific 2472, Union Pacific 814, 833, 838, 844, Challenger 3985, Big Boy 4014, Pere Marquette Berkshire #1225, Nickel Plate Road Berkshire #765, Milwaukee Road S-3 #261, Chesapeake & Ohio Greenbrier #614, Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe #'s 2926, 3751, 3768, Spokane Portland & Seattle E-1 #700, & Frisco 1522.
@@NorthwestDaylight Maybe a little. But Spo-KANE is not a common or accepted alternate pronunciation. Would you be OK if I said "SOW-thern Pacific"? It's just simple research: if you're going to do a video about a region, take the 5 seconds needed to check on pronunciations.
I have a Kato N scale of SP 4449 & the Kato N scale Southern Pacific Morning Daylight 10 car set which is my Excursion train on my model railroad which is the Pacific West Coast on a temporary layout. I rotate it with my Amtrak Superliner that I call the Coast Starlight if I run it at night & it is the Coast Daylight when I run it in the daytime and my Santa Fe freight. My railroad will focus on the entire West Coast from Tijuana to Vancouver, BC, Canada during the last quarter of the 20th. Century from 1974 to the end of 1999.
Small correction in your description, BNSF's Columbia River Sub runs from Wenatchee to Spokane (Spo-CAN), the Fallbridge Sub is the one that the 49 ran over from the Trunk Bridge to Vancouver.
As someone who lives on the Daylight Route, San Luis Obispo, CA, she hasn’t returned home in my lifetime. I appreciate everything Portland has done, and they deserve to keep 4449 there, but someday I hope Union Pacific is either gone or allows her to come back to her old stomping grounds and revenue service route.
Northwest Daylight Productions When I say gone, I only mean gone from the coast line, considering they don’t use it for freight anymore and Amtrak is pretty much the sole user of the tracks.
Great to see her back on the mainline, that oh so nostalgic sound of her whistle surely is one of the most soulful sounds anywhere. What I cannot understand is why the U S doesn't have a "new build" of missing locos? In the UK there are several nearing completion and Tornado is proving a hit so the template is there
Northwest Daylight Productions Thanks for that. Great to see there is a new loco being built though not too sure if the T1 may be a step too far as it has known reliability issues. Though it could become a success as one loco with known steaming problems was found to have a design fault eradicated when it was rebuilt by enthusiasts
Its sad you never thought to clean your lens! And was it absolutely necessary to film the whole train pass .....every .....single .....stinkin .....time?!?! Oh it got so boring after the first two times! Heaven forbid you'd actually rotate the camera with the passing engine! Shouldn't the 4449 have been your actual focal point at all times???

that was a awesome video of the 4449 steamengine
say it with me...."Oh-reh-gun" Not "Ore-ree-ghone" LOL!!!! Great video though!!! So glad to see the 4449 back on the rails!!!
Not to mention "Spo-KANE." Gosh, if only there was some way to look up the correct (or at least common) pronunciation of city and state names.

Brooklyn is where she stayed until the ORHC was near completion in early 2012.

Preferably the latter since they have a steam program

your narration is not loud enough
That building at :45 is where the old Hoyt Roundhouse was and was were she was restored in 1974/75....
adam hinkle 🤨
I'm surprised you did your narrator the same for a video on Milwaukee road 261's excursion in 2013 to Duluth.
🤨
She has not ran out on the main line in the last few years
Take a guess why (hint: it happened BEFORE the pandemic )
BTW it's pronounced :OR A GUN, not "ORA GONE"
