UP 4706 - BNSF 7820 - BNSF 8263
Title:  UP 4706 - BNSF 7820 - BNSF 8263
Description:  UP 4706 - BNSF 7820 - BNSF 8263 leading a huge rumble out of the area... and warranting a bigger potty-dance type maneuver from the photographer trying to balance atop the guardrail after glancing up at camera screen post-shot... that power string has to be huge, because theres a giant section of track thats completely blocked by trees and buildings. To move, or not to move? The string is going slow, but is it worth possibly missing something? (And you people sitting at home think this shooting trains stuff is easy. The least you could do is jiggle your legs around for me to help imitate the excitement / indecision dance I was doing... for the lazy, just wiggle the mouse a little. Thanks. Itll add to your enjoyment of the images since the quality sort of sucks... remember, Im balanced, in the wind and rain, atop a guardrail post above blackberry vines that disappear down over the edge of a hill. For the full effect, see if you can get someone to sprinkle water on you while viewing - now youre getting the full effect!)

UP 4706 et al
Title:  UP 4706 et al
Description:  UP 4706 in front of eight BNSF units ( BNSF 7820 - 8263 - 7272 - 4421 - 4637 - 7950 - 4991 - BNSF 4394 (southernmost) ) which could potentially be a weird advertisement lashup for Union Pacific... "Relax... We can handle it." (more embarrassing with it being on BNSF trackage.)

UP 4706
Title:  UP 4706
Description:  UP 4706 on point of a power NINE-way (doesnt that make it pushing forty-thousand horses?) which is caught entering the north yard area after a quick duck-and-cover-jump-in-the-car and shoot around the several blocks to a position up above the newer north yard area I can finally stop dancing around trying to get a clear shot - now Im only fighting the power lines supplying the lights and round table.
