The "Have a Nice Day" locomotive
Title:  The "Have a Nice Day" locomotive
Description:  The gong bell (much like a mechanical railroad crossing bell) on the nose is a dead giveaway that this is a former Chicago & Northwestern locomotive. Someone has added a friendly touch-up to this one.

UP 3090 trails on a ballast train from Rock Springs
Title:  UP 3090 trails on a ballast train from Rock Springs
Description:  A quartet of Union Pacific SD40-2s pull a Janesville-bound loaded ballast train through downtown McFarland. This was the first day I decided to actively follow a train and take pictures, and I was reduced to Dad's cell phone camera because I forgot to put a memory card in my Sony! To top that off, I didn't really know how to use the cell phone camera and didn't save the approach shot correctly.

Old Warriors
Title:  Old Warriors
Description:  The weatherbeaten and heavily tagged 3690 is one of not many UP SD40-2s left that has not been rebuilt to SD40N and renumbered accordingly, like 1990 behind. It was also a direct purchase by UP upon construction in 1980, rather than a merger acquisition.
