HLCX 335
Title:  HLCX 335
Description:  Several days ago I was talking with a friend who was curious about railfanning. I mentioned how I've always wanted to catch a locomotive with fire blowing out of the stack. The very first photo of the day, BAM! Fire! Yes, I know it's blurry and normally this photo would go to the junk bin but I still find it interesting enough to be uploaded here. UP 9947 has a sick tubocharger while building a train in Davidson Yard. All I have to do now is wait another 15 years and hopefully my next fire photo will be in better focus.

UP 577
Title:  UP 577
Description:  A pair of ex SP units are working the jailhouse yard. I don't know the name of this yard but a Tarrant County jail is behind this duo. Note the all weather window on 577, this is not listed as a snow service unit but she looks like she could be.
