Description:  After a long trip down the former CB&Q from LaCrosse, WI, the 4449 blasts under the bridge at Highlands, running on the south track. At 60MPH, the locomotive almost looked as it was gliding.

Title:  (3) The Daylight
Description:  Even as I took this shot, I was already starting to pull the camera away from my face. This was my first time ever seeing a mainline steam locomotive actually running at mainline speed. These photos do NOTHING to convey just how exciting it really was.

Eastbound SP 4449 and the Cross-Country Daylight Train
Title:  Eastbound SP 4449 and the Cross-Country Daylight Train
Description:  Headed across the Wisconsin River Bridge near the confluence with the Mississippi River is the Eastbound SP 4449 Cross-Country Daylight Train in a scene from Wyalusing State Park that somewhat resembles the Pacific Northwest Region that is the engine's home. This is the first time I'd ever seen the Daylight GS-4 4-8-4, and I never imagined I'd be able to see it in the Midwest. Thanks to all the groups who made it happen. It was a fun chase.

Title:  Eastbound SP 4449 and the Cross-Country Daylight Train
Description:  Here the train is seen leaving Savanna after a service stop on the BNSF Aurora Sub. I wish we'd been able to see this thing roll by a couple more times, but even driving 14 hours to see it twice was well worth it.
