UP 844@Pueblo,CO Train Station in the Snow-6minHd

www.chieftain.com More than 200 people lined the railroad tracks near the Pueblo Union Depot on Tuesday waiting for a passenger train. They weren't there to ride it, just to experience its presence, to hear the whistle and the chug and watch a symbol of railroading's past go by. The Union Pacific Railroad's historic steam locomotive, No. 844, arrived here on part of a 32-day, nine-state tour of Western states, highlighted by visits to New Mexico and Arizona, who will celebrate their 1912 entry into the union next year. The "New Mexico/Arizona Centennial Tour" got under way Oct. 29 when the train left Cheyenne, Wyo. It includes supply cars, baggage car and dining and observation cars. Mark Davis, Union Pacific spokesman, said about 15 Union Pacific employees were awarded with trips along the route. There is no sleeper car. There's also a modern SD70ACe diesel-electric locomotive just behind No. 844's tender to provide dynamic braking, so that the historic locomotive doesn't wear out its brakes on the grades along the trip. & Hats off to JointLineRailFan mentioned in the Pueblo news!
