Loaded coal for Centralia, WA rolls westbound out of the Gorge.
Early in the journey to Bend, OR, running along side the Columbia.
A westbound BNSF freight approaches downtown Stevenson, running on slow orders due to the high temperatures in the Columbia River Gorge that day.
The same train I photographed at Chamberlain Lake and Cooks finally passes through Stevenson, after a delay when an open hatch on a tank car was spotted from a passing train.
A westbound leaves Stevenson, with an interesting consist of a Dash 8-40BW, an NREX SD40T-2, and a BN green SD40-2.
The second unit is a SD40-2B unit
Accelerating after holding the main to meet a couple of eastbound freights. Great stack talk here -- I wish I had audio!
