The sun had come around far enough that the highway side of Baron Creek bridge was lit. Now if only they would move the wires to the other side of the highway!! |

Into the twilight |
| Description: |
I wasnt able to get a shot of the northbound at Stilwell, he beat me to the north end of town. I caught up here at Baron, shooting him coming past the automatic at MP 252 as the light gets low. |

More pastoral panorama |
| Description: |
Not as dramatic as the previous shot, but still pretty. The power set on this train is unusual in that it has three KCS units, and only one BNSF, with one BNSF on the rear. They must have pulled a BNSF unit somewhere, as these trains usually arrive from BNSF in a 2x1 configuration, with KCS adding a pair of diesels for the trip south. |
