UP 4903 - UP 3817 |
Description: |
UP 4903 - UP 3817 in a long traffic jam along the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge - most likely headed eastbound, although with an empty, logic would say west - but there werent any tailers on this string. Unfortunately camera malfunctions in the previous two consists (one even containing a beautiful KCS power unit) in an oddly busy morning along the gorge. |

BNSF 775 |
Description: |
BNSF 775 in a trio headed north showing the real Eastern Washington and the Palouse region as it starts north of Tokio, WA. Photo credit to Cheryl, which is fitting, having grown up in the area - good job snapping at highway speed. It is harvest, coupled with the huge fires to the east, so the normally clear air is pretty murky - but at least we finally got something other than rain on our trip! (Note: File name is mis-named: location is Tokio, WA) |

Description: |
BNSF 6084 - BNSF 5759 pushing pair on northwest bound coal drag near Reed Point, MT under our first good sunset, artificially enhanced by all the fires in Oregon & Washington - but at least it finally wasnt raining, even if we were rapidly losing our light for shooting trains. (Special hint for those considering travel: dont schedule your summer vacation into this region during the Great Harley Meet in Sturgis - youll have to travel hundreds of miles extra to find a room at the inn.) |

(sorry to keep cutting out the well weathered UP 5454, its on the original images, but, even though I feel sorry for her, sometimes you _do_ have to dress up for an event and wear neat clothes!) |

UP 1585 |
Description: |
UP 1585 under partly cloudy skies, temperature a mild 101°F in western Nevada (the crew was a good sport not calling the authorities to arrest the maniac running around on the scorching sand dunes snapping pictures - my apologies to the lizard I scared out of his wits & sent him running while I was scooting up to get into position before the engine moved beyond camera range). |
