F40PH-2 Leads #224 Southbound |
Description: |
Caltrain 907 leads a southbound into track 6 at San Jose Diridon. 907 is one of 5 Caltrain F40PH-2s that was never rebuilt with a separate HEP generator. Instead these 5 had the HEP system directly connected to the engine system. These "stock" units can be distinguished from the rebuilt examples by the presence of a rear walkway at the end of the carbody and a distinct growl when stopped. This is caused by the engine running at a continuous higher RPM when the HEP system is running, even when the locomotive is idling at stations. 907 was built in 1985 by EMD. |

Caught him |
Description: |
We again divert from our usual haunts to chase the Union Pacific, this time on their Kansas Pacific route, from Denver to KC. It was in recent years and coal funnel, with much of the coal comng out of Wyoming headed for Kansas City routed here to take it off the Overland Route in Nebraska. Thats now down significantly, and seeing trains here is a some time thing. During a stay at the KOA in Strasburg, we found the tracks were literally over the fence from the campground. So on Saturday of Labor Day weekend, when a train passed at 1000, I was off. I caught up just outside Byers, starting a run at this eastbound oil train. |

Cottonwood |
Description: |
The high plains are generally bereft of trees-the Denver area gets only about 14" of rain annually, most places west of the 100th meridian(the OK-TX panhandle border) get less than 20"-so the trees tend to grow where there is underground water, which is more prevalent than youd think. The giveaway to the presence of this water is cottonwood trees, whose roots grow down to access it. They also make for a good photo prop, as we see with the eastbound oil train near Agate |

Elevator |
Description: |
The one ubiquitous feature of almost all of these high plains towns is the grain elevator, though many of the smaller ones have gone to trucks as the railroads priced them out for lack of volume, or theyve closed entirely. This one here at Deer Trail is still viable, but no longer rail served. The oil train passes on a Saturday morning. |

Over the top |
Description: |
Despite what many think, the terrain here is not pool table flat, and there is some roll to it-and there is a gentle drop in elevation as the line moves east.. The oil train comes over a rise, and is now headed downhill into Agate. |
