PVOSTO MODBAR (could have easily been placed lead unit en route due to lead loco issues... it ended up 2nd out) BARSTO STOPVO (there was local internal lobbying to place it on the point, TM has deaf ears...) From Provo it took a couple train symbols for it to return to BAR... BARVAW VAWBAR (current train it's assigned to now) So basically it's rolled through N. CA 5 times within the last 3 or so weeks and is en route again, usually last loco in the consist...

There's nearly always a S/B BNSF DPU Manifest (heavy with Lumber) that rolls through Downtown Sac along the old WP in the early morning hours (6:30am-8:30am). The train in question may arrive in the same time slot.

Believe it or not, these trains actually run on sort of a schedule (unless you were counting on it to go railfanning that day :-)). Tom Y |
