UP in eastern Iowa
Title:  UP in eastern Iowa
Description:  I chased this train halfway across eastern Iowa, getting ahead, then stopping in opportune spots to try and get the all-American train photograph (as you can see, I didn't have much luck on that count.) Five engines on this train, and the third or fourth unit was making a horrible wailing noise, almost painfully loud.

Union Pacific parked on the mainline
Title:  Union Pacific parked on the mainline
Description:  A sextet of Union Pacific power sits parked by Union Station. The short cut of cars with such a long line of motive power seemed strange, as did the fact that they shut down all but one locomotive. Turns out the train had suffered a derailment; the front end of the train had gone on ahead to a spot where it wouldn't be blocking any grade crossings.
