PNWR Harbor Turn Chase - Part 4

[Linnton (Harbor Siding to United Jct.)]
On a very nice Saturday morning of May 16th, the Harbor Turn takes off from Tigard enroute to Harbor in Linnton, Oregon. The Harbor had PNWR 2314 (EMD GP39-2), PNWR 2303 (EMD GP39-2), and PNWR 2306 (EMD GP39-2) that day and I decided to chase this train on it's adventure. This was my first actual chase of a freight train and I had over 70 minutes captured to edit. Since I can't post one, 70 minute video, I'm splitting my chase up into about five parts.

In part 4, the Harbor Turn arrives at Harbor Siding and makes the interchange with the Linnton Switcher, PNWR 3052 (EMD SD40-3) and PNWR 3004 (EMD GP40). Once that was all done and dandy, the Harbor again takes off through United Jct., headed back from Banks, so it can be turned and head back for Tigard to end the day.

That's not a sd40-2 it's a sd45.
