A visit to Oregon Rail Heritage Center and thoughts on trains

On the eve of Thursday April 25, the Salmonberry Trail Coalition held an event at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center (ORHC). The Salmonberry Trail is a trail being built on the former Port of Tillamook Bay right-of-way through the Coast Range. When completed, it will offer a car-free way to the coast by bike or foot, one without the steep grades found in these mountains. It’s a great project, but…

Somehow i really almost forgot to post the coolest car I’ve ever seen. Seen at the Monticello Railway Museum. Apparently this car lives somewhere near my uncle since he says he sees it almost everyday on his way to and from work. Not exactly a train but I thought it fit here. I hope maybe I can see it again someday, it was awesome.

Sprinkle Road por SD80MAC_4103 Por Flickr: Southern Pacific #4449 is seen from the Sprinkle road overpass in Kalamazoo as the train works its way east on the Michigan Line. The Daylight was nearing the end of its 2,000+ mile long journey from Portland, OR to Owosso, MI.

Hi hi I went to a model train show earlier today and spotted this Southern Pacific Daylight Train, specifically Southern Pacific 4449 and honestly it caught my eye and I've been thinking about it ever since.

The only model trains I have are HO scale and the Southern Pacific Daylight Train was S scale and scary expensive too.

I did have one of these in HO scale but...

✨my dad dropped it on the floor and broke it✨

Anyway I was really excited to see this train today and wanted to share it, so uh yeah if you actually read this you deserve a cookie 🍪 :)

Also here's another train I spotted that I really liked:

I did say I would sprinkle some train rambles amongst the Submas content so uh enjoy I guess lol

On the Job with the SP Daylight

On the Job with the SP Daylight

In August 1991, I made this image on Southern Pacific’s dime. For three days I was commissioned by Southern Pacific to photograph the famous 4449 with Daylight train working excursions between Redding and Mount Shasta. Fellow photographer Brian Jennison and I had traveled up from the Bay Area and had three days of glorious California sun. Most of my photos of 4449 were exposed on Kodachrome 25…

It’s an excursion train run on the tracks of the Oregon Pacific Railroad, a shortline that branches from the old SP/current Union Pacific mainline just south of the Hawthorne Bridge and runs to Milwaukie. (The section here parallels the…

After i did Roanoke 611 a while back i knew i wanted to do a sort of companion piece featuring America’s other famous operating streamlined steamer Daylight.

They’re one of the few locomotives to have two eyes and i’ve drawn a Daylight before With these kind of eyes (specifically my interpretation of Purple Emperor from .007) and the colour’s even somewhat close to it too lol.
