Union Pacific train MWCDA 02, with SD90MAC 8199 for power (along with UP 9480), waits for a crew so the train can depart the railroad's West Colton Yard in Bloomington, California, for its trip to Dallas, Texas. On the adjacent mainline is the infinitely more interesting Pacific Railroad Society 75th Anniversary special, running from Los Angeles to Bakersfield behind P42DC 156 (recently painted into Amtrak's original paint scheme to celebrate the carrier's fortieth anniversary) and Dash 8-32BWH 510.
