Rare Footage Of UP 8444 in 1980

Here we see a video of Union Pacific steam locomotive 844 (8444 at the time) pulling a train on the Greely subdivision. We found this 8mm film in a box of old stuff and figured it was worth sharing for everyone to see. This video certainly takes us back to a time where it was a lot harder to shoot video and audio than it is now. This was shot by David Miller.
