CP Carson and Dolores Yard on New Year's Eve
Title:  CP Carson and Dolores Yard on New Year's Eve
Description:  Before the Alameda Corridor was built (the tracks beneath the cantalevered signal bridge), train watching at Dolores Yard was easy, but by 2002, the yard had been fixed so that getting shots involve stopping at a no stopping zone and pointing the camera out the window. Still, I managed to pull in briefly and get this shot of a warbonnet Dash 9 waiting its turn on the Corridor, while a UP SD9043MAC idles and a southbound UP stacker behind an SD70M gets ready to make it's run down into the Harbor.

UP 5699
Title:  UP 5699
Description:  At first glance this appears to be just another among hundreds of Union Pacific ES44AC diesels ... But it is not. Train MDOWC-22 (Merchandise; Dolores Yard [Carson CA] to West Colton Yard [Bloomington CA]) is led by a General Electric demonstrator without a normal model designation – The builders plate (actually a sticker) lists this as an "AC V12 Tier II Prototype". This is a preproduction precursor to the ES44AC, and the UP owned five of them, numbered 5695-5699 (DC-variant demonstrators also were delivered to BNSF and NS). These were built in January and February 2003, and were used to field test the new Tier II emission systems. The train is seen at the UPs Dolores Yard on July 22nd, 2003. (Thanks to Greg McDonnell for the background information on these, and confirmation of the model.)
