Passing through dense fog |
| Description: |
As the train led by UP 5380 switches to the passing track at CPSP Need, it passes another train waiting on the signal, which is barely visable through the fog. The manifest pulled by UP 5380 was primarily box cars, seen here disappearing into the fog. |

Waiting for a Northbound |
| Description: |
The crew of UP 7500 hauling a load of auto racks died. The engineer was brought up from Stockton, about 25 miles away. The conductor, seen here crossing the tracks, arrived later after being brought down from Roseville (about 70 miles away). The train can be seen in the far distance waiting and blocking several crossings. It will soon head to this end of the siding , pick up the conductor and be on its way. |
