Southern Pacific 2472 splits a pair of semaphore signals at Sunol, California this morning on its way for a meet with UP 844. There was nary a foamer there as most were in Oakland with the 844. it was a real treat to have the 2472 all to myself for one run-by.
Union Pacific 844, Southern Pacific 2472, and the Robert Dollar Company #3 pose for all the foamers at Hearst siding near Sunol, California this morning. Union Pacific made an extra effort to acommidate us all by allowing us to cross over the tracks for photos.
B05 starts it's new run from Burns Harbor, IN east into Michigan stopping in Niles, Dowagiac, Decatur and Lawton, MI on it's 170 mile run trip. Looking forward to many years of seeing them around town.
The red signal from the controlled siding can be seen reflecting off the side of 353 as it pulls out of Niles with Cascades in the lead and Amtrak's 511 pushing. It was worth standing in a light mist for this shot. You can see it crossing 5th street as it leaves.
