Locomotive No./Train ID CR 6018 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Ex-PRR SD35 6018 adds its brawn to a colorful early Conrail lash-up on a Detroit-Chicago merchandiser. I always liked SD35s -- they appeared to have big feet ... like me.

Locomotive No./Train ID CP 4741 None	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: One of CP's behemoth M636s snuggles up to the wall of the Tecumseh Road roundhouse during the infamous Winter of Seventy-Eight. Wonder if it helped?

Locomotive: Burlington Northern Santa Fe GE ES44DC	Location/Date of Photo: Sunset Avenue -- MP 18, BNSF Scenic sub Edmonds, Washington, USA September 11, 2009
Locomotive No./Train ID BNSF 7697 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Is it that the sun shines more harshly these days or the railroads are cutting back on the quality of paint applied to new locomotives? BNSF GEVO 7697 isn't that old, but the orange livery is rapidly weathering toward pink!

Locomotive No./Train ID BNSF 7697 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Hurry up and wait! A hot Z train cools its heels (reportedly for three hours) mere miles from the end of its cross-country run. Mt. Baker undoubtedly has seen this sort of thing before!

Locomotive No./Train ID BNSF 5070 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Now that the unprecedented heat wave in the Pacific Northwest has broken (most people here aren't used to dealing with such phenomena!), trains and railfans once again can emerge to pursue their respective wonts. A southbound Z train makes time toward Seattle.

Locomotive No./Train ID SDRX 907 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Different strokes for different folks! Scuba divers just offshore seem to be ignoring the southbound passage of a Sounder Mariners' Special (Everett to Seattle) this fine Sunday morning. Or maybe they'll be back up in time to watch baseball on TV ...

Locomotive: Burlington Northern Santa Fe EMD GP38-2	Location/Date of Photo: Port of Everett Everett, Washington, USA April 23, 2009
Locomotive No./Train ID BNSF 2081 Unknown	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Boeing aircraft assemblies that arrive by sea at the Port of Everett are off-loaded onto a barge, then moved across the harbor to this dock, recently opened near the bottom of BNSF's five-percent-plus spur to the assembly plant at Paine Field. Once today's quota of containers are all on the railcars, 2081 and 2080, specially modified for this service, will shove the whole batch up the hill.

Locomotive: Amtrak GE P42DC	Location/Date of Photo: West of Amtrak station Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA April 28, 2005
Locomotive No./Train ID AMTK 32 AMTK 355	Photographer: E Garrett Contact E Garrett + Add to Favorites

Remarks: Unfortunate in its rather shabby appearance, Genesis 32 only represents the perennial state of poverty in which Amtrak has been kept for many years. Perhaps the more recent emphasis on more efficient transportation will bring about a change of priorities.
