Larry,

I do believe you saw the Lind with the 2 SD75's light power..

Interesting that only one locomotive on the point in picture #19..   I wonder if the eastbound intermodal in picture #12 is a repositioning train or a second section of the Z-PTLCHC..


SP8100

 

Funny SP8100, the Lind Turn power came back EB light, no cars about three hours later.
