BNSF 8846
Title:  BNSF 8846
Description:  A loaded coal train bound for the TXU plant in Central Texas is passing the old SP Broadway Yard. I wonder if the verticle air intake behind the cab is strong enough to tug on a passing crewmember's clothing?

UP 7385
Title:  UP 7385
Description:  A DPU pushes a mixed freight up and over the UP/FWWR yard in North Ft. Worth. I've been trying to catch a train on this bridge for quite some time and was dissapointed when I arrived and missed the lead diesels. Lucky for me a DPU was trailing so it still counts, sort of...

HLCX 335
Title:  HLCX 335
Description:  Several days ago I was talking with a friend who was curious about railfanning. I mentioned how I've always wanted to catch a locomotive with fire blowing out of the stack. The very first photo of the day, BAM! Fire! Yes, I know it's blurry and normally this photo would go to the junk bin but I still find it interesting enough to be uploaded here. UP 9947 has a sick tubocharger while building a train in Davidson Yard. All I have to do now is wait another 15 years and hopefully my next fire photo will be in better focus.

SP 9794
Title:  SP 9794
Description:  Lately a lot of unpatched SP power has been showing up in Fort Worth. SP 9794 is especially special, this is the last true GP built for a US railroad (GP20Ds don't count!) as well as the highest numbered (and last) GP60 on the SP roster. UP 2004 is the locomotive that sholdn't be, this locomotive is either SP 9701 or 9704 but I've not had any luck locating frame information. Can anyone shed some light?

UP 9414
Title:  UP 9414
Description:  When I took this photo I just snapped away not noticing this unit is riding on two different trucks, a standard GE C truck and a rare Adirondack. Makes me wonder where this truck came from and how it ended up under a UP unit. This is the second UP unit I've caught with this type of truck.
