SP 4449 without helpers

Click Photo To Enlarge

On Saturday, April 25, 1981, City of Portland owned, former Southern Pacific (SP) GS4 4449 went from Portland, OR, to Klamath Falls, OR, as part of its journey to Railfair 1981, the Grand Opening of the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, CA. This appears to be shot before the steam engine picked up helpers in Oakridge. I lost my notes from that trip. Exact location unknown. Railbaron, on Trainorders, said, "approaching Hampton, OR (about 3/4 mile north / SP RR east of it). It is along Lookout Reservoir."
