just south of this spot there is a siding that goes up the hill and there is an old ATSF station that was at the head of the line that went east from the Springs.
The UP set in the background is power from the coal delivery to the power plant downtown. They push the new stuff in and pick up the empties.
see all

What does patched mean?

@CRAZYSNIPES80: On the Southern Pacific locomotives (the red and grey ones), the color around the engine number on the side of the cab is yellow. The number was patched on top of the SP colors, hence the nickname "patched".

@jointlinerailfan: That's cool the conductor and the stuffed animal are regulars. I caught the Nixon train again when I visited the area in September.

I can't get enough of that GE sound. According to my list of UP locomotives, though, there isn't a 6902. :-/

Used to be C60AC 7515, and it was very recently converted to C6044AC and renumbered to 6902, a number used by a DDA40X decades ago.
