July 16, 2022: Southern Pacific #4449 "Daylight", the last of the operating art-deco steam locomotives, has been steaming up for 4 days and is ready to move out of the engine house to the yard to meet visitors for the day at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center in Portland, OR. The #ORHC is a working locomotive shop and museum, home to 3 operating steam locomotives including Daylight and welcomes visitors from all over the world.
Under the direction of hand signals, Daylight pulls forward to couple to the PR 190, a privately owned vintage diesel locomotive, and backs it over the shop pit to help provide a safety cover before visitors arrive.
The locomotive in the background is the Spokane, Portland & Seattle #700 in the process of getting ready for a 15 year FRA inspection.
