This one almost got away..2 BNSF '70MACs crest the divide at Belmont and are throttling down for the drop to Crawford. -After a long wait at this prime spot and with nothing coming i was about to leave..driving east a short distance I came to a better view of anything coming from the south and, sure enough...I did a quick turnaround and hastened back to my spot with barely time to get off this shot...'just goes to show how wise the saying 'Just {wait} a minute more...'!!! |

I knew it would be a good day when the 9941 showed up with a heavy coaler going south, a scarce 10 minutes after I had arrived at this location. A wide and long pullout here off Plum Creek Road offers an excellent place to set up and wait. These first 6 photos will follow 1 train to Greenland. |
