Very nice images.

FDF

great shots. I don't think the first location is pica.......

All three are great shots. However, I do agree with goneon66; that is not Pica.

Great views! What an interesting consist in #2 and all of the engines are facing forward!

I took this picture about 1 to 1.5 miles west of Pica. I say Pica because it's the closest station to this location. It's coming down from Yampai.
