Not much happening
Title:  Not much happening
Description:  I went to see friends in Belen NM during December 2023, driving out from Arkansas. OF course, I had to stop in Tucumcari, hopefullly to see something passing the ex Rock/SP station there. Unfortunately, not much going on, just a couple of trains canned in the yard, among them this westbound. Id see more later, including a meet between here and Santa Rosa.

Trailing along
Title:  Trailing along
Description:  After I got the head end, it was just a matter of waiting out the DPU. I was hoping for a couple of units-the KCS, which crosses this line here, almost always runs their coal trains in a 2x3 configuration here-but UP runs them 2x1. Of course, their grade profile is a lot more favorable than the up and down KCS. Still, a nicely lit and nicely clean SD 70AH was a good finish as the train rolls past the local library, in the distance.
