Remarks & Notes

I've always thought how cool it would be to have a family member who is a railroad engineer or conductor. A local mom takes her son to see off his dad working the cab of Amtrak's California Zephyr in Salt Lake City. Train #5 was about 10 hours late on this particular day, making a daytime photograph a possibility.
