UP 4-6-6-4 #3939 - Union Pacific Challenger         
A sad view of this once mighty 4-6-6-4 Challenger as it sits in the storage/scrap line in Cheyenne, WY. Built by Alco-Schenectady in August of 1944 (serial #72801), this massive steam locomotive served the UP well until being "vacated" in June of 1959, barely 15 years of service. Unknown photographer
