As part of the celebration of the Union Pacific's 150th anniversary,
the UP sent one of their excursion trains headed up by steam locomotive
844 to the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento. On September
27th the train left Reno and headed west. After a stop at Truckee it
climbed up over Donner Summit, through Colfax and on to Sacramento. My
friend Gary and I chased the train from just east of Truckee to just
west of Colfax. Gary is featured prominently at the end of several of
the scenes.
