I got out a little Sunday and put some more miles on the "train
hunting" mobile, but it was worth it. I didn't stay in one spot this
time. It is actually more fun finding new locations to take photos
because it's like a treasure hunt. Well anyway, here are the photos,
so enjoy.

Some good shots there. About the only thing I like about UP is the type of coal hopper they often pull.
