Southern Pacific GS-4 4449 "Daylight" leads an excursion from Portland, OR through the Columbia River Gorge and along the Deschutes River to Bend, OR in June 2017, in what is currently the most recent mainline excursion led by the world famous locomotive.
The video starts a day before the departure for Bend, as the 4449 and crew get the consist ready to leave the following day. The first day shows the 4449 in full stride as it rolls along the Columbia River showing off every bit of when she was designed to do. After the Gorge, the train slowly makes its way along the Deschutes River before cruising into Bend. After laying over in Bend, the Daylight headed back to Portland as it does the same route in reverse with the chase beginning at Redmond, OR. The return trip saw the 4449 having to wait for regular traffic in the Gorge, which allowed more time to get ahead of the engine for additional shots.
Enjoy this look at 4449 running from Portland to Bend on the 2017 Cascade Daylight!
