4014 Special on the Palmdale Cutoff
Author: DRGW

Here's todays Special as heads down the Palmdale Cutoff south of Dike. After getting hosed at a great spot above Blue Cut by a westbound BNSF running on Main 2 and the special running on Main 3, us not knowing what line or tracks the train was on, and after a long wait to crossover at Keenbrook this is what we came away with.

You bagged a great shot of this train regardless. I like that early evening light. Excellent job.

Nice Matt! You done good with that light!

KC - You could have used those "friends in high places"

Great shot of what will be known years from now as a fairly iconic deadhead move.

Very nice shot, Matt. Like the background clouds over the mountains in this one.

Thanks for sharing,
