a few left out on the road . . .
Author: 3rdswitch

.   .   .   left overs from my two weeks ago road trip:
top: nice clean UP local at Kearney, NE. Not used to seeing untouched local power on UP.
middle: DAIR Sioux City job pulling onto the Beresford Branch at Heywarden, IA, to meet southbound counterpart on Little Sioux River bridge.
bottom: set of power at west end of IAIS Council Bluffs yard.
.   .   .   few more to go   .   .   .

.   .   .
top: southbound stack train negotiating the hog backs of the Ft Worth Sub at Dickworsham, TX.
middle: driven by this unit so many times sitting at an old elevator site in Herrold, TX, that's been baking in the Texas sun for many years. The elevator was torn down years ago but the unit and a similar painted box car remains. One day it will be gone.
bottom: just another southbound BNSF coal train on the Red River Valley Sub between Memphis and Estelline, TX,
