BNSF 5470 |
Description: |
BNSF 5470 rolls through Abra. Abra is what BNSF calls the passing siding in the town of Paulden. This was my 4th and last time catching this train and by now the conductor knew who I was (a brief , but friendly conversation at Drake help) and he gave an excellent wave from the cab! This portion of the line opened in 1962 when the Abra-Skull Valley line change opened, bypassing the town of Prescott. |

The M-BELPHX comes up the dip and into the sleepy town of Ash Fork. This train is on the former Seligman Sub, now used as the Peavine with only one track because of the Crookton cutoff. |

This looks like a good spot |
Description: |
This was a good spot until I realized I made the one mistake I try to avoid at all costs: Checking shadows. I make it a point to check shadows at every spot I go to so I won't end up on the shadow side of the tracks. I forgot to do that this time and as punishment, the train had some great power trailing. However, even if I had notice the shadows, there was no way to get on the other side of the tracks without trespassing on railroad property, so I was doomed either way. |

The Dispatcher deserves a pat on the back for this. The train coming toward me is on the 3 mile long siding and the other one (seen in this pic) was on the main. Neither train stopped, they just both slowed down to about 30 MPH and passed each other. That's some fine dispatching! |
