AFT 4449         
Wearing both Amtrak and American Freedom Train lettering, ex-SP Daylight 4449 heads west across Bayou Des Allemands on the Espee's SUNSET ROUTE. The train was Amtrak's TRANSCONTINENTAL STEAM EXCURSION, which allowed passengers to ride behind the 4449 as it moved from its visit to the Southern Railway's steam shop in Birmingham back to its home in Portland.
