Nice photo, but what on earth is that train all about?  U-RICCRL.  Is it a Richmond, CA to Carlsbad, NM grain train with one car full of gold covered grain followed by a security car to protect all the gold?

Now that makes sense!
 
An engineer I know loves those geometry trains!  And the geometry crew loved him too!  He would gun it (take off fast) and slow down quickly.  It was like Magic Mountain for the geometry crew!
