This is a High Speed Drive by of the mighty SP4449 Steam Locomotive, aka "The Freedom Train", aka "The Daylight"
This video was taken July 4th, 2011, in the Columbia River Gorge as it was on its way back to it's home in Portland, Oregon. The crossing I was at is located in Prindle, Washington. The Daylight was really moving this pass, chugging steam and laying on the steam whistle! This gigantic streamlined beauty is quite a sight to behold and literally shakes the Earth as it goes by!
Sorry about the shaky camera at the start!
