Monday along the Cal-P and Stockton Sub
Author: UP9000

With the weather here in Northern California being just beautiful, and having a rare weekday off, my wife and I decided to hit the tracks. The UP ran a couple, and the BNSF ran many, yet due to terrible dispatching, you could not count on anything to move and when. Yet the one BNSF train we did get was a nice warbonnet on the point. Here are the pictures.

Photo 1 UP 8378 W at Pinole

Photo 2 BNSF 784 W at West Gateley.

Photo 3 UP 5118 E at CP RVO20. About a quarter of the sun was below the horizon when this photo was taken. Another 30 seconds and the results would have been different.

The Pinole shot is money! I was in SF shooting Cal Train, but I wish I would have snapped off a few of that K Line stacker.

You're making me miss my favorite railfan spot there in Pinole Jamie. Great photos.
