Remarks & Notes

It's still dark this morning in Portland as crew members from the Friends of the 4449 work to complete the final preparations before taking the 80-year-old product of Lima south to Oaks Park to operate the annual Holiday Express. In the background to the right of the big 4-8-4, a crew member hangs from the side of "Little Boy" as it is switched out of the consist and into the Oregon Rail Heritage Center for the duration of the Holiday Express' operations.

Nocturnal Nuances: Sunset To Sunrise & All Through The Night! Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 600,118
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
