    Here are some pics of the train taken from a safe place of this train and one other that was stopped at the Calls Fort Road because there was a broken rail this morning, it had a 4.5 inch gap. two trains crossed it, one in the dark that did not see the gap, but was rolling slow due to a red single, the other train came along in day light and spotted the gap but rolled across it before getting stopped. I also have video of this train powering up and heading out, but its still uploading. I'll post link when its ready.

    Always interesting seeing a reporting mark such as CMO. That essentially went away fifty five years ago. Yet UP sees a use for keeping it going.
