Not only is this a non-coal train on the Orin Sub, but it is being led by a Warbonnet SD75M and a Norfolk Southern C44-9W!

DC units are pretty rare in the PRB these days, but the specific units on this train made this a really cool catch. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

My dad and I set out to find some night shots on Saturday around 10:30pm. This shot was taken near the WY-59 overpass (geographically north of Bill a couple miles). This was a duration of 30 minutes and there were two westbounds (geographic northbounds) that passed by during that period, separated by about 12 minutes. I was glad there wasn't an eastbound (geographic southbound) during that stretch as it would have really washed out the shot! The lights in the distance are coming from the Antelope and North Antelope Rochelle mines. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Looks like the dispatcher is getting setup for a race between a pair of eastbounds (geographic southbounds). Clear signals have been setup on Mains 1 and 3 for a pair of trains just leaving Bill when this shot was taken. What's more, a westbound (geographic northbound) was also approaching on Main 2 a few miles away too. The shot is a bit grainy because I had my ISO set to 3200. I wanted to capture the stars while keeping a relatively short exposure (45 seconds). Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
