Title:  Dash 9s Lead an Eastbound Merchandise Onto Fallbridge
Description:  Grade crossing on the North leg of the wye. For trip #3 i spent three seperate days railfanning, but due to light, in photography terms, it was more like 1.5 days. This is one of the few moving night shots that came out well enough to publish, this power was followed by one more H2 dash 9, and Santa Fe lettered Warbonnet of the same model.

The "Garbage Disposal" Gets a Crew Change
Title:  The "Garbage Disposal" Gets a Crew Change
Description:  What? Cant come up with my own nicknames for trains? It may not be very original or funny or anything, but to me the "garbage disposal" is just what i enjoy calling this train... one long double stack of containters full of trash, and for railfans who are "less then fond of" dash 9's, they could probably make the joke that its powered by two more pieces of it, since ive only ever seen it powered by two dash 9s. (not throwing myself in there though.)

Four GE DC Motors Lead Portland-Chicago Intermodal
Title:  Four GE DC Motors Lead Portland-Chicago Intermodal
Description:  As you can see by the,sign this train is crossing 8th street. I did a little research and Google earth-ing, and found that this crossing was very recently protected by a rather interesting and rare pair of flashers, but as sien here, the gates are down and its long gone, and the trilights appear to be new as well. Nice video i found showing the old crossing for those interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiia-V4sSRk ..(while the replacement is not something thats gonna make any railfan happy, it is MORE than understandable why it was replaced with safer equipment, judging alone by the very high volume of rail traffic ,a very good thing for railfans looking at the bright side).
