The Head Cheese rolls through Dunsmuir
Author: photobob

Today"s UP Special supposedly had Up's President on board. It really is a good looking train however I am not a big fan of the theater cars with their roll up doors. I didn't think I was even going to chase it with the heavy rain we were getting this morning. A chase up here is about twenty miles from home so it was worth giving it a shot.

Where is this train going? It appears to be going southbound: did I miss it coming through Eugene, Oregon?

That train passed through Albany around 9 pm last night with no fanfare (local railfan network was mysteriously silent). Thanks for the pics, Bob!

Doesn't seem to be on the Dunsmuir cam either?

Dunno, with my weird sense of humor I expected to see a string of meat reefers that contained Head Cheese :-)

Yep, D-Cam is having it's 'I need attention moment', it happens every three weeks or so. The highly skilled re-boot Team has been called.

It does seem to have awkward timing though.
