N/B UP Autorack Train
Title:  N/B UP Autorack Train
Description:  A westbound (UPRR northbound") autorack train bound for West Colton makes its way down Cajon Pass with UP SD70ACe-T4 3045 and SD70ACe 8414 at the front and AC44CWCTE 5903 at the rear. Because this was my first time seeing a Tier 4 ACe and on-point, I chased it down to Hesperia, Summit, and Mormon Rocks. While I did beat it to Swarthout Canyon, I ended up waiting at the wrong crossing, as it took the Cajon Subdivision instead of the Palmdale Cutoff. At least I got some great photos of it from where I caught it.

S/B UP Coal Train
Title:  S/B UP Coal Train
Description:  As we were leaving to head back home, I was surprised with an eastbound (UPRR "southbound") coal train. UP AC45CCTEs 5254 and 5492 lead while UP AC44CW 6218 (née SP 171) and AC45CCTE 5457 shove as a DPU. Nice way to end the day, especially with that AC44CW, even though it was repainted around 3-4 years ago.

Palmdale Cutoff
Title:  Palmdale Cutoff
Description:  Here are a couple trackside photos of the Palmdale Cutoff, Swarthout Canyon Road crossing while waiting for a West Colton-bound autorack with SD70ace-T4 3045 leading. However, it actually went on the Cajon Subdivision and ended up passing the other crossing, as shown in the last photo. Oh well.
