Album Info:Here are pictures from my first time at the Golden Spike National Historical Site, August 19, 2003. As time permits (including developing/scanning), I will upload pictures from my new trip for the "150th Anniversary" of the Golden Spike!!!! Also, any trains from that 2019 trip will be uploaded here! That included Union Pacific "Big Boy" #4014 and "Living Legend" #844!!!! I am also including pictures from the only time I saw the UP "Challenger" steam engine, #3985, from a trip out of West Chicago, Illinois June 18, 2002! ©Copyright Robert Jackson Photography®

"Spike 150 Train"
Title:  "Spike 150 Train"
Description:  The "Spike 150 Train" heads east through the Echo Canyon, Utah, on its way to Evanston, Wyoming, May 12, 2019. We luckily got ahead of this train by driving down Echo Canyon Road thanks to finding a good route on my newly purchased Utah DeLorme atlas. We got ahead of the crowd from Echo, UT going east. People passed us around "Blind Curves!!!!" I used my "MA" motor drive out the rear window! "Big Boy" 4-8-8-4 leads the train! UP ordered twenty five "Big Boy" locomotives between 1941 and 1944. The frame is “articulated” with two sets of driving wheels, perfect for negotiating tight mountain turns. 4014 was built in 1941 and last steamed in 1959. It eventually was restored to operation, converted to run with oil and put in service specifically for use during the anniversary celebrations in 2019. (Canon AE-1 Program 35mm camera, Fuji C200 print film)
