Western Railroad Discussion > Brightening up a gloomy day...

...with C&NW yellow and green.

Last Friday (1/24) the C&NW heritage locomotive led a westbound North Platte, Neb to Roseville, Cal manifest across Nevada and although the trip was made under gloomy, overcast, UP 1995 looked quite spiffy and worth a photo.

Attached is a photo of the train approaching the heart of Palisade Canyon, riding the former eSPee (today main 1 of UP's Elko Subdivision, main 2 the old WP main can be seen across the Humboldt).

Thanks for looking,
Ryan

Terrific photo Ryan, despite the clouds and gloom.

Are you able to tell us where the photo was taken?  Was this near Carlin or further east?

Thanks, Tim Costello
