| Remarks & Notes |
| UP 844 opens the taps with plenty of straight track to get into a groove. This "Northern" class locomotive was built in 1944 and has never been retired from active service. Her top speed is in excess of 100mph and despite her age she remains very capable.
Red Rock Pass in southern Idaho is the spillway for ancient Lake Bonneville. Over 14000 years ago the lake overflowed its banks here causing massive flooding. |
