Agree. Nice location and video, Cricket.

Do you know if this is an Overland train bound for Lathrop, CA, or an LA&SL train bound for LA? It seemed like a decent sized train, and while it didn't have DPU power I'm curious if DPUs, when needed, get added onto trains bound for NorCal at origin terminals like G2 or further along in their journey like Ogden or Sparks.

Sorry, can't help on the destination of this train.
Most of the larger stackers that pass through here tend to already have
mid-train DPUs or on the rear.
