The remains of what appear to be a traction motor (perhaps?) lays covered in dirt about 100 feet away from the tracks at Brendel. The Potash Local switches in the background.

Four Phase-II SD70M's are pulling hard (the B40-8 is shut down) on the eastbound MRONY-11 just east of Brendel. Although clouds covered the sky early that morning, they had vanished from the desert by 10am, when this picture was taken.

After completing its switching moves at Brendel, the Potash Local is backing down the siding heading for the east end. The train will enter the mainline and then proceed down the Cane Creek Sub to Potash.
