Shoving on Bayport Loads |
Description: |
Two UP AC44s give a loaded Bayport coal train a shove as they head up the stiff grade at Westminster. I was really hoping a train would have come down main track one on the Saint Paul sub on the right, but it wasn't it the cards. However, the BN-CP Transfer was holding just a bit past here at Mississippi St. None the less, a neat shot. |

UP -2 Trio |
Description: |
A trio of UP SD40-2s rumble towards Northtown with the UP-BN trailing. The sight of three UP SD40-2s was nice, and to make it even better, the lead unit still had a red strip! |
