SP Daylight runs this year?

[Anonymous]

It might be a very long time before the 4449 returns to the bay area. At this time we don't have any trips planned because of the insurance crisis. If you want to see her again, you might have to come to Portland to see her rather than wait for her to come to you.

If you would like info on the 4449, check on www.4449.com and www.orhf.org

Does anyone know if the SP Daylight steam loco (is that 4449?) out of Portland will be making one of its periodic runs down the coast through the San Francisco Bay Area this summer?

It was fantastic for the kids (incl. me) to see the Daylight come charging through town at full throttle one way, then returning to stop at the local depot. This was some years ago in connection with something called Railfair I think.
