Union Pacific Railroad's Steam Engine #844

The departure time from Enid to El Reno has been moved to 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning, at least it was the last time I checked. There is another web site with more detailed information: http://www.uprr.com/aboutup/excurs/trace.cfm

Hi All, I am a steam engine interested party. I have chased this engine all over NE Kansas. Just one caution, plan on it not making the schedule to the minute. Especially if it is on a main line where there is competing rail traffic such as coal or intermodal movement. But, never give up - it is a sight to see with its 14 car consist.

Regarding the UP steam locomotive #844 - it also has a GPS system on it and you can follow it on the website referred to in this latest issue. Makes it a lot of fun to follow and much easier than waiting somewhere and wondering where it is.
