A lot of folks really enjoy pacing the Big Boy as it is moving along at track speed! You can see the line of cars here on US-30 that are doing precisely that, taking in the sights and sounds of the train as it heads east.

Looks east from Point of Rocks, the red, white, and blue boxcars really make a strong statement on the semiquincentennial train led by the Big Boy.

One of my personal favorite shots of the day came at the location known as Point of Rocks just east of Potter, NE. Nebraska is, of course, a relatively flat state, and Point of Rocks is one of the places that has a few significant hills (with a lot of rocks!). Partly cloudy skies help create a bit of a dramatic scene here along US-30.

Working to outrun the clouds drifting across the sky, UP 4014 makes its way through an S-curve at the location know as "Point of Rocks". One of the more interesting terrain features in the relatively flat terrain of Nebraska.
