Remarks: I used an 70-200 zoom lens set at 200mm to frame up this UP staker at Boca , CA, as it rounds the bend with fresh snow on the ground. Stack trains over Donner Pass in the snow, boy it‘s a beautiful thing!

Remarks: From the I-80 Rest stop at Emigrant Gap, I was shooting my last shot of the day which was for the 2009 "A Day in North America" issue of Railroads Ill. The storm clouds from a passing storm parted and let the sun shine in just as this westbound UP trains rounds the bend. This was my last and best image of the day. This shot, nor any of the other shots I sent in made the cut, but I thought it was worthy of RP.

Remarks: The sun just peeked out in time for this UP Pacer stack train to be sun lit at Boca, CA. This is one of my first photos of an UP stack train battling Donner Pass, and it‘s my favorite one of the day. I have been longing for UP to start running stacks over Donner, and the wait is finally over!

Remarks: With fall colors abound, a BNSF coal train heads west with a new SD70ace on the point. The new orange paint goes well with the autumn yellows of the Columbia River Gorge. The Gorge is a breathtaking area to shoot trains in, especially in autumn. This shot was taken from a old wooden bridge that is getting harder, and harder to find around these days

Remarks: Just after sunset, a short UP nine-car stack train is captured working through the s-cures north bound along the water at Steilacoom, WA. What a shot to end my very first day of rail fanning in the PNW. Thanks to Robert Scott, and Steve Carter for the great tour of the area!

Remarks: This UP stacker is working eastbound at Pulga in the Feather River Canyon. No, the trees on the hillside behind the train aren't turning fall colors, there was a wild land fire a year or so before this shot was taken. I think the burned trees gives the image an appearance of a fall scene.

Remarks: After working in the BNSF yard in Bakersfield, CA for some time, this leaser has been tagged by vandals. As Graffiti becomes more of a common sight around US railroads, it is costing railroads hundreds of thousands of dollars to clean up.
