The 742 local is held for three trains before finally getting a clear to head to the yard at Valley. A careful observer can see some snow way up on the mountain top in the distance.
First train of the day rolls through Valley to meet an empty coal train at Wann, the start to the busiest day on the UP I saw during a trip to Vegas. (Business trip for Maryann, trains for me).
A Mark VI hustles past the golf club of the Wyn resort. The Vegas monorail currently runs east of the strip and serves many of big casino resorts along the eastern side of the strip.
