It was a rather cold, wet day when I awoke in Evanston, Wyoming and made my way out to see the newly restored Big Boy Locomotive and her train. It was actually snowing as I watched it pull out of the yard and head west. Knowing that the traffic this day would be a nightmare, I decided to forego some of the spots just outside Evanston and head directly for Echo Canyon. It took a while to get out ahead of the train, because some yo-yos insisted on pacing it on the interstate, holding back a large pack of cars who were just looking to get down the line. When I finally got moving, it was an 80 mph run to the I-80 rest stop in Echo Canyon, where I joined a couple of hundred of my closest friends, trying to find a parking spot and a place to watch. Not only were there a lot of photographers at the rest stop, if you look behind the train, you can see a large number of chasers down on Echo Canyon Road at the bottom of the canyon. After taking my shot, I was more than a little worried about the mad scramble that was about to take place getting out of there. I capped my lens, stowed my camera and calmly walked back to my car. Amazingly, when I got there, there was no one parked in front of me, and I gingerly drove right out of the parking lot, almost before I had to even worry about pedestrians. I guess lots of folks had tripods, drones, and the like to collect. I literally was one of the first out of the I-80 rest stop, and easily drove on to my next spot with plenty of time to get ready. I am still wondering how I did it. I got 4 spots this day, but after I took my last shot, I was a nervous wreck. I elected to forego heading into Ogden and headed over to the Hill AFB Museum to check out some airplanes.....and decompress!
