Remarks & Notes

Amtrak's Desert Wind train #35 makes a rare daylight appearance along Union Pacific's Lynndyl Subdivision at Lake Point, Utah. The connecting California Zephyr train #5 arrived at Salt Lake City about 10 hours late making this photo opportunity possible. Amtrak's Desert Wind trains operating daily between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles made their final runs on May 17, 1997.
