Union Pacific Steam Engine 844





Guess who go to get up close and personal with a real Steam Engine train?

Union Pacific Steam Engine 844 toured through our area this weekend. We took Owen to see the parked engine on Friday night and then on Saturday, we drug him out of bed and took him to the railroad crossing to stand and watch the train go by. The look on his face was priceless. His eyes were huge and his jaw was on the ground as the train whizzed by us in about 16 seconds. When it was gone his phrase was "More train!" He has been telling everyone since that he saw a "BIG TRAIN!" Good times!

I don't know how we didn't know about this! It came through Russellville as well and we didn't see it! Paxton would have loved it!
