New Bearing
Title:  New Bearing
Description:  Mechanical Foreman Henry Krening polishes a new bearing for the 844's right side 3rd driver side rod journal. The old one seized up during yesterday's trip into Kansas City, and this new one was fabricated by a machine shop here in Kansas City today. It was a close fit, but still needed .02" taken off, a process that would take another 2 hours back in the tool car.

All Steamed Up and No Place To Go
Title:  All Steamed Up and No Place To Go
Description:  They had to get some steam up for the air compressors to work, thus allowing them to lubricate the new bearing they were about to install. I had them flip on the headlight so it didn't look like such a static display.

UP 844 Says, "Diesel Locomotives Suck!"
Title:  UP 844 Says, "Diesel Locomotives Suck!"
Description:  December 1944 never looked so good. It's going to be hard to shoot diesels after this. Here UP 844 slumbers for the evening after a day on public display at Kansas City Union Station as part of The Valley Eagle Heritage Tour. Scott Turley of the UP Steam Crew was nice enough to turn on the headlight and classification lights for me to get a couple night shots. He's a hell of a worker and a nice guy.

Engineer Steve Lee
Title:  Engineer Steve Lee
Description:  Steve Lee has UP 844 and The Valley Eagle Heritage Tour well under control around 50 MPH on the UP Coffeyville Sub. near the Martin City, MO area. Seems like yesterday I was looking over this guy's shoulder in this cab when I was 7 years old. Hard to believe that was 13 years ago!

52 MPH
Title:  52 MPH
Description:  Now here I was thinking 52 MPH was pretty sweet--until Steve Lee mentioned to the pilot engineer that she hadn't even begun to stretch her legs. Hard to believe this thing went DOUBLE this at times in revenue service. That's the diesel MU box in the foreground.

Southbound UP 844 and The Valley Eagle Heritage Tour Train
Title:  Southbound UP 844 and The Valley Eagle Heritage Tour Train
Description:  Stopped at Bucyrus for a short, unscheduled service stop to monitor and lubricate the brand new bearing installed on the other side last night. Screw diesel engines...this is sweet. You can make out my reflection in the cylinder cover.
