Southern Pacific Daylight, Engine 4449
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, April 26, 2008 9:42 AM

Does anyone know what happened to the Southern Pacific Daylight, Engine 4449?  That is one of my son's favorite engines, and I know he would love to see it.  It has to be preserved in a museum somewhere.  If anyone knows where, please advise!  Thanks.

Not so much preserved in a museum but maintained in running condition. Its next outing is set for mid June.

Yep, it's regularly out and about. Last year it double teamed with UP 844 up in the Pacific Northwest.
