Description: |
Union Pacific's 8444, with the American Flag flying, rests at North Platte, Neb. The 8444 had just doubleheaded with the American Freedom Trains 4449 from Omaha. After taking on fuel oil and water, the two 4-8-4's will leave North Platte at sunset to complete their journey to Cheyenne and the end of a once in a lifetime experience. |
