Remarks & Notes

Looking like a Star Wars scene In February of 2006 the weather was no different from a typical Sierra Nevada Winter. In this scene the UP 604 pauses in Truckee, CA while the storm continues to dump. The new crew will board shortly to help keep the snow clear between the rails.

Pictures of things often unseen in the world of railroading. Interesting equipment, operations, and people that help the railroad go around.

A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
