Waiting at Wendel |
| Description: |
Rio Grande 5361 sits with two other tunnel motors on the Modoc Line at Wendel, NV. They're waiting for an EB train that will give them three more units prior heading towards Alturas and Klamath Falls. Wendel is one of those truly obscure places that only raifans seem to seek out. |

No Coal today, thanks! |
| Description: |
Five units bring an eastbound SP freight through the legs of a long-retired coal tower at Deming NM in the summer of 1983. SD40T-2 8525 is followed by a trio of B30-7s and a single GP40-2. The tower dates from the mid-1920s when SP acquired the El Paso & Southwestern RR, whose steam power burned coal instead of oil, five towers being built between El Paso and Tucson on the SP "north" main to service the 'new' power. They all came down by 1998. |

Hallelulah and eight units |
| Description: |
A northbound SP train passes through Beeville enroute Houston in August 1972. This is serious flatland railroad territory, so anything more than three units can be considered unusual; seven big six axle motors is very odd and the Conrail U25B (2675) only makes this movement all the more notable. |
