Amtrak Station |
| Description: |
Amtrak Station Reno, NV - plaque on the entrance: "1864 : 1964 V&T 1869-1950 - Reno was the north terminus of the Virginia and Truckee RR built by Comstock Bonanza Kings, the Reno-Carso City link was built in 1871-72, connecting to Virginia City. Traffic diminished as the mines declined and the V&T was abandoned in 1950. Nevada Centennial Marker No. 20. Sponsor: Daughters of the American Colonists." If you go, the El Dorado offers really good rates and is the hotel-casino visible in the background, just a couple blocks from the station. (Who says I cant be bought off with even a small discount for an advertising plug? Seriously, though, it was a very nice room and place to stay with shockingly low rates.) |

BNSF 122 and BNSF-ATSF 158 |
| Description: |
BNSF 122 and BNSF-ATSF 158 charging across the Truckee River just west of Mustang, NV on a short mixed freight headed east below cloudy skies (figures, we travel 650 miles to get out of the rain... todays forecast for Nevada? Chance of rain/thunderstorms - but at least its still warm! (98° running across the sand and rock to get into position for this image - I completely enjoyed the air conditioning after getting back to the car)). |

BNSF 122 leading BNSF 158 |
| Description: |
BNSF 122 leading BNSF 158 along the Truckee River in a fast clip. Ive never really chased a train before, but we were about to head into miles of potentially wonderful shots and I wasnt about to give up on a double-war bonnet to enhance the scenery. So a quick run back to the car. |

BNSF 122 and BNSF 158 at a complete dead stop. Using the zoom on the camera, this single line track seems to have a construction crew still spread across things just up at the bend beyond this one (behind the photographer, who in such a rush to get into proper position ahead of the train never noticed them). |

| Description: |
BNSF 122 and BNSF 158 coming out of Reno, NV - and, wow - thats not really a pair of double axle war bonnets popping out from behind the embankment? One of the crew portion of "Bob-n-Crew" is taking the camera to shoot for Bob since hes stuck driving the car in Reno traffic. The extra pair of eyes keeps the train visible as we slowly gain on it heading out of Reno - Bob planning an emergency stop at some point just up the road where, oops, the track might be visible. |

UP 1585 under partly cloudy skies, temperature a mild 101°F in western Nevada (the crew was a good sport not calling the authorities to arrest the maniac running around on the scorching sand dunes snapping pictures - my apologies to the lizard I scared out of his wits & sent him running while I was scooting up to get into position before the engine moved beyond camera range). |
