- HD - The 68-year-old SP 4449 steam locomotive at the Naperville Amtrak 7-18-2009
The SP4449 pulled Southern Pacific "Daylight" coaches from Los Angeles to San Francisco over the scenic Coast Route and then on to Portland until 1955.
Locomotive No. 4449 was built in Ohio for Southern Pacific in May 1941. The oil-burning locomotive is 110 feet long, rides on 80-inch driving wheels and can reach speeds of 100 mph.

That new single mars light is cool!

Great catch!
@ibook133 That lounge used to be part of the Hiawatha trainset. It's a rare piece of hardware now.
Awesome Video What Kind Of Camera Do You Have Its Better Quality Than Mine!
I love how everyone completely ignores the diesel..... I don't blame them :)
13 or more years later, but it's maybe good that 4449 stopped - wasn't there a metra train that came to the station at the same time?
