Are they running the majority of westbounds over the FRC? I spent the weekend camping in truckee, I saw all the trains you documented and wondered why only 3 westbounds went over the hill all day, while about 15 went east.

This morning has been no different, as 5 have gone east past truckee since 4am, and no westbounds.

I really enjoyed the Ferromex units, glad to see you documented them.

I was up on Donner for a few hours yesterday afternoon also. Managed to catch the same 1+1 no grainer at the big hole in photo #1.
Shortly after the 5285 West appeared with a clipped wing in photo #2
Here is the 8862 West at Shed 10 earlier in the day in photo #3
