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! |

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". |
