(1) The Daylight |
| Description: |
After a long trip down the former CB&Q from LaCrosse, WI, the 4449 blasts under the bridge at Highlands, running on the south track. At 60MPH, the locomotive almost looked as it was gliding. |

(3) The Daylight |
| Description: |
Even as I took this shot, I was already starting to pull the camera away from my face. This was my first time ever seeing a mainline steam locomotive actually running at mainline speed. These photos do NOTHING to convey just how exciting it really was. |

Departing |

The air has been cut in and the 4449 leads the train out of Michigan City, creating an almost classic scene as it approaches the old coaling tower on the east end of the yard. |

SP 4449 at BO Tower |
| Description: |
Passing where NYC's famous Dreyfuss Hudsons once tread, 4449 leads her train across the diamonds at BO Tower, one of Michigan's last manned interlockings. In today's world, seeing a mainline steam locomotive AND an active tower together is an incredibly rare occurance. |
