    This is local "LJM 042"...works virtually seven days a week out of North Las Vegas' Valley yard. It works in two sections...42 and 42B...and sometimes like the other day...they'll run two at the same time...necessitating its designation as the "42 extra"..their biggest customer is Pan Western...then next there are about a dozen if not more lumber yard suppliers all lined up, one after the other, that get daily shipments of lumber products.

    Mike, great pic. I like the SP unit 8613. Back when the York Canyon Mine in NE New Mexico was still open and before the BN merger; we used to see many SP loco's on unit coal trains bound for AZ. Keep the pics coming!
