This weekend, I'll get to see the UP 4-8-4 "Northern" #844. It's coming down from Cheyenne-Kansas City, through Oklahoma, and right through Denton, Tx close to me. It will tie up in Ft. Worth Friday night then head to South Texas Saturday. I plan to do some "chasing" on Saturday. You can go to UP's website to get the itinerary and track its location.

Nice pic, I'll try to take one or two also. I've seen the Challenger and Frisco 1522 come through before, but not 844 yet.

Ken and All, Here's a link to the UP coming through my side of the world. I may not get out of work to catch it today, but luckily it's stopping in Ft. Worth. http://www.uprr.com/aboutup/excurs/trace.cfm

Ken and All, A great outing today. Chased 844 through a couple of towns, got some pics, the first here hot off the press. It was the only location we got that didn't have a throng of people in the shot. More to come.
