Title:
Picking up Speed Over Grand Avenue
Description:
The special passes over Grand Avenue in Haysville as it picks up a little speed. The engine wasn't fazed a bit by 14 cars and level track.

Title:
Southbound UP 844 and the Oklahoma Centennial Sooner Rocket
Description:
The Oklahoma Centennial Sooner Rocket operating as UP Train SWTEN 09 crests a small grade on the way from Wichita, KS to Enid, OK with a 14 car passenger consist in tow at about 30 mph. I don't think I could have asked for a better morning for big steam. This was the longest UP Passenger Train I'd ever seen, with 3 domes! Can't beat that!

Title:
Proud Heritage. Powerful Future.
Description:
The flagged baggage car "Council Bluffs" passes by. This is simply a locomotive flag graphic blown up to massive proportions. It sure flashes up the train from a distance. As if a yellow train needed a "flashing up".

Title:
Classic Scene
Description:
As passengers detrain on the other side of the train from the "Sunshine Special", a whole new load of riders wait behind me as Conductor Reed Jackson, Boilermaker-Welder Scott Turley, and a UP MOP recreate a classic scene straight out of railroading's past. Reed passed away on August 15, 2009, and he will be missed by the UP Steam Crew, and by a whole lot of other people who knew him.

Title:
Retired Mo-Pac Man
Description:
This gentleman by the name of Howard Dawson had 45 years in with the MP/UP, and he retired in 1986, 21 years ago. He rode in the cab of 844 from Wichita to here, where he had just gotten off the engine. I stepped over and had a few words with him, along with other crew members. The Howard, in his late 80's said he'd had a ball this morning. Thanks to the Union Pacific Yahoo! Group member who told me his name.
