BNSF 5748 |
Description: |
A runthrough BNSF grain train headed to the Modesto area of California is seen at Minnow on UP's tracks passing Lookout Point Reservoir. The original line through here was on the other side of the river and in this shot is underwater, but is visible in certain areas when the water is low. This train is using the 1952-built reroute that had to be built when the reservoir was created. |

Southern Pacific 2021 |
Description: |
Fairly objectively the best looking Southern Pacific-painted locomotive on UP's roster in 2021, the UP 1124, makes another appearance on the Weyerhaeuser Local as it has been doing sporadically for the last five years, and it has been a treat every time. Today's job has just finished its work in Springfield and has been given authority to enter Eugene Yard on the WP siding. It is seen here between those locations at Springfield Junction, where the former Siskiyou line ties in with the newer Cascade line. |

Weyerhaeuser Local |
Description: |
Former SP 9721, now patched UP 1124, is the sole power on this day’s “Weyerhaeuser” local. Despite it being 2021 there’s more than one notable holdover from the Southern Pacific on the train today. Most obviously is the scarlet and gray paint with SP speed lettering still dodging UP’s paint shed on UP 1124. The less obvious one in this picture is the string of four former Golden West Service boxcars. Another holdover is the name the crews and dispatchers use for this daytime Springfield local, the “Weyerhaeuser.” This local was called that back in the SP days and the name is still used today despite that mill now being owned by International Paper. The nighttime Springfield local job, which uses the same power as the daytime job, still goes by the old SP name of “Vaughn Dougren” as well, despite no longer going to either Vaughn or Dougren anymore. The Rosboro mill in the background has also changed little since the SP days. |
