The Union Pacific Railroad’s ‘Living Legend’ — the steam engine #844 — is heading to St. Louis on Tuesday, due into Kirkwood Station at 12:15 p.m. and departing for downtown St. Louis at 12:45. On the way it will steam through Maplewood.
Union Pacific is helping people track the train’s progress two ways: on Twitter at @UP_Steam, and on its Steam Locomotive Tracking map.
