Hi, After picking me up at the Ontario Airport about noon friend Dave Busse and I headed east. The plan was to spend the next 2 1/2 days photographing BNSF as we worked our way across California and Arizona, and 1/2 way across New Mexico.
Our first night would be spent in Needles, CA. A few weeks before I the trip I realized friends, Jim Kleeman, Jay Kleeman and Dwayne Litzenberger would be in the same general area at this time so we arranged to meet for dinner, a nice bonus.
Our first stop was in Ludlow, CA where we chose a location just west of town. Typical of the transcon there were plenty of trains. After a couple of east bounds (above and below) and
a westbound (above and below) we continued east.
Our second and final location of the day was Essex, CA where we got our kicks on the Historic Rte 66 bridge over the tracks. The train above is westbound.
It met an eastbound west of the bridge.
The DPU provided a nice glinty shot to end the day. Thanks for looking.
