High Speed Steam Train Drive by of the SP4449 Locomotive

This is a High Speed Drive by of the mighty SP4449 Steam Locomotive, aka "The Freedom Train", aka "The Daylight"
This video was taken June 25th, 2017, in the Columbia River Gorge as it was on its way from Wishram, Washington, to it's home in Portland, Oregon. The crossing I was at is located in Prindle, Washington. The Daylight was really moving this pass, and laying on the steam whistle! This gigantic streamlined beauty is quite a sight to behold and literally shakes the Earth as it goes by! Plenty of friendly waves from the passengers too.

Southern Pacific 4449 is the only surviving GS-4 locomotive and is one of the most recognizable locomotives of all time. She was donated to the City of Portland in 1958 and moved to Oaks Amusement Park for static display until December of 1974 when the locomotive was removed from the park to undergo restoration. From August 1975 to December 1976, 4449 shared duties with several other steam locomotives pulling the American Freedom Train throughout the U.S. 4449 is still operational and since mid-2012 resides at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center in Portland along with other preserved locomotives and rolling stock.
