UP 5486 North is topping the grade at Grass Lake Summit on a hazy July afternoon. I didn't try to get Mt. Shasta into the background due to the heavy smoke from the forest fires.
UP 5382 South blasts through Grass Lake while the 5486 North holds the siding. This was the only "blue sky" shot I could get all day, the smoke from the Northern California fires has Mt. Shasta all but invisible from I-5 & US-97.
Southern Pacific SD9E #5399, owned by George Lavacott (LLW) and leased by the Portland & Western, leads a Brooklyn Hauler west through downtown Lake Oswego. The locomotive was recently repainted back to its as-delivered paint scheme and renumbered from 4364 back to 5399. Ain't she pretty!?!
SP "Daylight" #4449 heads through downtown Lake Oswego with two matching "daylight" passenger cars on its way to a car show in Sherwood on June 13, 2008.
