*NOTE* For those who've been asking, the metal structure on the front of the locomotive was temporary rigging for the IMAX camera. The camera had been mounted on the left-front of the engine's smokebox that morning from Vancouver to Skamania. What you see from 3:20 to 4:10 is members of the film crew removing the camera and placing it in a different location on the engine. Because they did not have time to remove the front rigging at Skamania, they ran with it the rest of the way to Wishram and removed it later that afternoon. The movie that 4449 was out performing for is called "Train Time", a documentary/educational film done in partnership with BNSF about the workings of a modern rail system. The film is being directed by Stephen Low, the man behind the documentary "Rocky Mountain Express". While the film will center mostly around modern freight trains, 4449 (along with possibly a few other steam locomotives) is slated to make an appearance. For updates and more info on the film, check out Stephen Low's website. Oh, and I highly recommend checking out "Rocky Mountain Express" as well. -ERV

I do love to see a steam locomotive being operated properly like this!!! No black smoke from the stack and constant power/speed indicates that the steam cut-off is set perfectly and balanced with the throttle so the only visible exhaust is the condensing exhaust steam. It is always amazing that when the exhaust sounds are removed how quiet all that reciprocating and rotating machinery is and this video demonstrates that in spades. One of the best 4449 videos here on KZbin.

Stafford Northern Railroad Locomotives aren’t supposed to have black smoke coming from the smokestack because that means there is poor fuel efficiency or the fuel is not being burned completely. An example of this was when 4449’s fire was run on diesel fuel in 1989. There was thick black smoke because the diesel wasn’t burning completely and they had to put in a lot because it emitted less heat than oil fuel. When the fuel efficiency is perfect and you’re only burning the fuel you need, the only visible exhaust will be the condensing steam, sometimes not even that.

I wish I knew of this video before I stopped teaching! The pacing work is superb. I taught (computers/ technology) a section on the building of the Transcontinental Railroad and showed the students videos of steam engines in action. I'm 70 and remember seeing this and it's sister engines in service on the San Francisco peninsula and at Railfair in Sacramento. The first comment I got from a student after watching a steam engine was, "Is it on fire?!" I then explained how the locomotive works, in simple terms. This video could allow me to explain, or teach how it really works from the piston going back and forth, the valve gear, the firebox and boiler to the driving wheels. "Do you know the train moves forward or backward 80" on each revolution of the wheels?" Very amazing work. Thanks!

Usually the were pulled by diesel at that time but the lesser trains, Argonaut and Imperial were still steam. A lot of the time they had cab forward as power and it was a major procedure to lubricate the locomotives during the stop. Great to watch. Unfortunately the lines between Douglas and El Paso were pulled up in the sixties and now the Sunset limited runs from Tucson via Wilcox, lordsburg, and Deming to El Paso. Great memories. Thank you got this fine video.

The GS-4 and GS-5 Classes were some of the most beautiful if not _the_ most beautiful steam locomotives ever built. Not a statement from an impartial observer. I am old enough to have occasionally seen and more often heard 4449 and one or more of her sisters in service back in the Fifties on the L.A. Division. I do remember the steam whistle then had a higher pitch. When stopped or moving slowly it now sounds like a steamboat. In the shots where the locomotive is approaching the mic at speed it sounds more the way I remember it. That would be due to the Doppler Effect. It indicates to me that the tuning may not be that far off. I've also read that the GS-3, -4, and -5 had Nathan Air Chimes to supplement the steam whistle and the combo may be what we heard. Excellent video with good audio and atmospherics.

The locomotive was built by Lima Locomotive Works in Lima, Ohio, for SP in May 1941; it received the red-and-orange "Daylight" paint scheme for the passenger trains of the same name which it hauled for most of its service career. No. 4449 was retired from revenue service in 1956 and put into storage. In 1958, the SP donated the locomotive to the City of Portland, Oregon. The City then put the locomotive on static display in *Oaks Amusement Park*, where it remained until 1974. As a kid, I went to Oak parks many times and always spent a couple minutes gazing at ol' 4449. What a sight.

Exquisite. Another shot I liked your long shot of 4449 going across the water. Letting her come into frame and panning with her till the whole train was passed was something you don't see too often. I also enjoyed the last crossing. A nice low angle. Nothing like a steam engine when it's cool and damp! I fear though that after the accident in Denver this weekend steam's days maybe numbered. Everybody bows to the insurance man and rates will no doubt go up now. I hope not. That would be a sad day if nobody wanted to pay the high price. Railfans have got to be so careful.

Well 4449 could generate electrical power in the ballpark of around 90 volts AC, unfortunately that is no where near enough to power modern private coaches. Some require 3 phase 480 volts AC and other are like your typical RV and need 240 or 120 volts single phase. It's all depends on how the coach owners have modified and retro fitted the coaches with appliances, air conditioning, electric heat, electric water heaters, outlets for devices even all electric kitchens and laundry rooms like Ringling Bros had..
