Remarkable Engines: Union Pacific 844
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- This episode goes over the history of Union Pacific 844, but not the one which most railfans usually think of... The 844 THIS episode of Remarkable Engines goes over got its fame not for being a famous American excursion locomotive, but rather being a noteworthy part of Union Pacific's diverse roster of diesel locomotives.
I was not aware of the Engines of Union Pacific episode by OttoMatic covering the GP30s at the time when I uploaded this video. I did not mean to copy from his episode, as I believe both videos might have used the same sources for information.

Any Union Pacific locomotive with the number 844: *_"I didn't hear no bell"_*
I got a cab ride in 844 (GP30) a few years ago while volunteering at the Nevada Southern Railroad Museum. I even was aloud to drive the locomotive for a short distance.
I also got a cab ride just for being a railfan in 844
(GP30)
Having lived in Boulder City for a decade and in-laws from Nebraska (thereby UP and especially 844 steam fans), I loved watching the diesel 844 for years and learning this history.
Very informative and great video... Hope to see more like this...
I have seriously now marked "HO Union Pacific GP30 no. 844" onto my wishlist.
Can someone please explain why this video became my most viewed video of the channel (from 213 to 918 views) within the time period of one month, and has little to no comments? Did everyone think I was going over 844 the FEF-3 instead of the GP30?
Nah, they think you're going over 8444, the ACe that isn't the place with the helpful hardware folks.
Your probably right about people clicking because they thought this was about the steamer. But it was nice to see a documentary on the GP30, I volunteer at the museum where it still runs and I am very fond of the engine.
@@adamburnes3655 Nice to hear. I think it's because the thumbnail doesn't entirely focus on the GP30. I'm thinking about redoing the thumbnail, but that may decrease viewership as a result...
Um @pensyfan19 since you seem to think that the 844 steam locomotives original number is 8444 it's actually not 8444 it's original number is 844 and the 8444 renumbering was because of the diesel number 844
@@BlackHeart37498 *sarcasm for the intro...
Santa Fe also had an 844
I wasn't expecting the GP30 but I enjoyed this nonetheless
Yeah I think the thumbnail mislead a lot of people into thinking it was the steam locomotive...
First, let me apologize before anyone reads this posting. Excuse me for being such a "Doofus". I'm just a model train fan for the last 15-20 years that appreciates the hobby and I own about a dozen engines and three times as many rolling stock. I'm just pointing out that I speak with limited knowledge and experience and my hats off to those rail fans that know so much nit & gritty that it amazes me.
So, what I noticed most in this video was at 1:20. It shows GTEL #52 (I think) the Big Boy #4013 (I think) and then the F-3A&B #1429. When looking up #1429, it is shown as a 4-6-0 Steam Locomotive. So, I am guessing that UPRR re--uses previous engine numbers that it has once retired.
That is correct! It's not just UP who does this, since it's usually easier to give an engine a lower number if the number is no longer being used on a railroad's roster. Sports teams do this as well.
4:34 I recognize that town. Fremont Nebraska on the Ex CNW Blair Subdivision
nice
I have a question about the GP30 UP 844: Why didn't UP just skip 844 in the GP30 numbering sequence, like when the renumbered their SD70M No. 4014 so Big Boy 4014 could keep its number?
Probably to keep the sequence with the GP30s, hence why the steam engine was renumbered to 8444
@@Pensyfan19 That makes sense. Btw, you mind if I make a suggestion for a "Remarkable engines" video?
@@AutismTakesOn Sure. Suggestions are always welcome. (Granted it's a little known locomotive with a notable point in it's history)
@@Pensyfan19 The 2 foot gauge NG10 4-6-2s. I know they were used in South Africa, but they were all constructed by the Baldwin Locomotive Works.
@@Pensyfan19 Also, I could be wrong, but I think an NG10 is operating here in the U.S.
Bro... What the hell. The real 844 is the steam and the diesel bruh. The steam one was renumbered into 8444 and was renumbered back
Can you do Santa Fe 3751? There’s a BNSF locomotive (Which is a SD70ACe) that also has the same number, 3751.
Thank you for the suggestion, but I can't find enough info to give BNSF 3751 it's own episode of Remarkable Engines.
Oh, ok
What!
I hate 8444 but I love 844 and 8444 is ok
This is a joke
I was about to say
Cause if you did actually hate me you'd be dead in a millisecond
HOW DARE YOU DON’T DO THE QUEEN HERSELF! FEF3 NUMBER 844!
Because Remarkable Engines goes over little known locomotives in railroading history [see the Remarkable Engines Playlist] instead of famous ones. There are also a lot of documentaries on 844 the FEF-3 which do a much better job at covering the locomotive than I can.
@@Pensyfan19 true but I'm still offended that you called the imposter the "real one" which makes no sense since I came first

@@spiralhillrailfan3768 sus
Ah hell naw. That's (FEF) not 8444. It's just a renumber. 844 (EMD) is the fake one!
Ne-va-da not Nuh-va-da.
IMPOSTER
Diesel 844 is fake
Or is it..?
@@Pensyfan19 bruh
It’s as real as any other locomotive.
Can y'all stop the argument they may be fake but there the same as any other engine now I wanna doublehead with 844 2 if I visit the museum
