Title: |
UP 2561-UP 2001-UP 681 |
Description: |
Running out of light Christmas Eve as this trio gets the go-ahead just by chance as we're circling around after catching her a bit to the north. Contrary to the divergent eastbound tracks at the bottom of the frame, this line-up of double-stacks out of the Seattle-Tacoma port area (replacing Portland, since closed to container traffic) is headed southbound back to UP territory across the Columbia River train bridge off to the left and behind the camera position. |

PWRR 3003 / PNWR 3003 |
Description: |
PWRR 3003 near the service area a bit out of her normal range. The previous few weeks, a trio of her sisters were in the yard & aimed southbound - not sure how they forgot this lonely unit. (Note this site lists the power/registry as PNWR - although on the building in Albany, OR, they bill themselves as PWRR.) |

PNWR 3004 |
Description: |
PNWR 3004 making a much faster escape than I planned accelerating quickly out and away west... shooting across the little bridge Id previously tried to line up... waiting in the drizzle and rain on the headlights in the distance... until giving up and hiking up the highway to find the little interchange... only to be left in the dust (well, mud) after she goes shooting downstream from here practically jumping the bridge Id left behind earlier... at least I only have a mile or so walk back to the car... in the rain. |

PNWR 2306 - PNWR 2315 - PNWR 3007 completing the local switch-r-roo from 3007 being in front for the northward journey across the Columbia River to 2306 to take point on the return trip. The trio paused between consists just north of the 39th Street bridge Im currently using for a brief moment of cover from the rain while trying to clean the lens and figure out my own stupidity for leaving early to church "so I could have at least 30 minutes of almost daylight" before darkness falls in another 15-20 minutes... turned out to be thirty extra minutes to perfect my wet dog smell which I achieved far quicker than expected wearing Sunday Goin-To-Meetin clothes. To all those seated in the neighboring pews, I apologize for putting serious pew into those same pews (honestly - in some societies wet dog smell is the aroma of royalty!). |

PNWR 3007 |
Description: |
PNWR 3007 nose to the load on a southbound triple header hauling the local back home waiting for clear track on the deck of Vancouver Station... and its 4:30PM, theres no light left, a wet dog smells better than I do, Im saturated down to my Fruit-of-the-Looms, and I hope to dry out a little before having to settle into a pew for the rest of the evening, so splash back to the car to the disbelieving stare of the better-half, who has remained in the car listening to Christmas music for the past twenty minutes... and you wanna know something? Except for the fact they refused to turn on the heat in the church, I dont think I wouldve traded the evening for most anyone elses. Thanks for trains. |

AMTK 469 & PNWR 3007 & BNSF 2752 filling the lanes beside Vancouver Amtrak Station. AMTK 469 power/pusher on southbound Cascades doing a near-touch-and-go, PNWR 3007 was the lead unit in the northward local, then trailing unit in the quick get out of the way of the Cascades reverse back into the station area, but will return back out to the yard area (crossing the left/Amtrak occupied track to get access to the yard & her staged local for the return trip south back across the bridge (partially visible in the background to the right near the setting sun). BNSF 2752 is in the paired bridge protection spur waiting for inaction. All below the last moments of sunset a day after New Years. Id have to admit, sort of a neat way to start the year. |

WAMX 3525 and WAMX 3532 hoofing it hard and heavy shoots down the sideline near the mains in the Nampa Yard - potentially one of the fastest shuffle moves Ive watched with the crew barreling down the track. In Idaho, time is money and the sorting yards are long. That or maybe he was on UP trackage and being charged by the minute. |
