BNSF 5033 still second from the south behind 5449 remaining in the same order as a quarter hour prior in the fill station, now in a more clean line of sight power corral lane (at least when nothing is in the newly created by-pass lane in the foreground... the new bane to my existence on Sundays... well, other than the mutiny from the crew which has resulted in the new direct to church (do not pass go, do not collect $200...) edict. |

BNSF 767 |
Description: |
BNSF 767 the new fourth place in the power foursome when it appeared back in the power corral/waiting for duty lane... nothing personal, but nice addition to the pumpkins (although Ill admit it again - after several weeks of predominantly yellow UP units, the orange is possibly much more desirable (and war bonnet even more so) than a sea of yellow piddle power (nothing against all you UP fans, but it was a little tiresome seeing non-stop yellow). |

BNSF 9649 second of two with covered hoppers going north through the by-pass lane in throw-back green and white scheme... which I still wish I liked, but not really - the pumpkin color groups tend to grow on you (nopun intended); although I can see the benefit of just splashing a white stripe down the side of the newly added Norfolk-Sou... excuse me? Oh, its not official yet, sorry. |

BNSF 2721 - BNSF 1948 on the turn-table spur, BNSF 8361 and PNWR 2312 - PNWR 2315 - PNWR 2311 in background |
Description: |
BNSF 2721 on the turn-table (as if on cue to prove me wrong ap Id recently pointed out Id never got to see it work... now I have - more later in this paragraph) recently disconnected from her sister BNSF 1948, and getting spun around to place them long nose - to - long nose. Out on the passing lane with northbound covered hopper pushing duty is BNSF 8361 whileÚQNWR 2312 - PNWR 2315 - PNWR 2311 trio waits to exit out of the north ladder yard with southbound local mixed freight into Portland. As for the round table / turn table... it was neat to watch, although being sunset and looking into the sun a little challenging (I know, complaining about cool train stuff, I feel funny doing it) - but the sound - talk about absolute let down (and my ears bleed for the poor workers) - theres no*deep rumble, no satisfying clanks or clicks - only high pitched, whines and squeals (you know, like trackside wheel sets that just screech to high-heaven and make your jaw ache). So save your money on the sound equipped DCC turn table option (hr hope our new table is just modern wussy sounds and the classic, pre-1950s version is more cool. |

Might be time to get serious about camera shopping since the better camera passed a couple months back... especially as BNSF 7890 - BNSF 6665 as three and four were a complete botch-job, and not due to operator error, even though I was shooting fast to reduce my penance). |

BNSF 2812 |
Description: |
BNSF 2812 (GP39-2R) with her paint still holding up relatively well a half-year later since the last time I posted a picture of her after the loss of her Irish heritage livery change (the rise of the Great Pumpkin) with a gaggle of her sisters back behind the RIP shed. |

BNSF 4711 |
Description: |
BNSF 4711 second from the north in lingering, glorious war bonnet livery - which weve been seeing much more lately... but then followed by a slew of new pumpkin paint jobs. Although looking back now, at the end of October, painting may slow significantly with the dropping revenues for all the Class Is... although with the slightest stumble of the stock market, if any of them have lingering cash... "M&A" anyone? (Time to refresh that B*NS*F rumor again?) |

GECX 2042 |
Description: |
GECX 2042 northern-most unit back in the power-in-waiting sidings behind the inspection pit - which was soon to be fighting a record October rainfall that would go relentlessly for the next 29 days straight. |

BNSF 1106 |
Description: |
BNSF 1106 monkey in the middle of the power threeway and... I admit it, Im a weather wuss. After five straight months without any appreciable rain (the first 10-14 days of October would bring more rain than all five months combined) - its hard to go back to our Pacific Northwest reality. Although there might be some good news (at least for us) in this new normal weather pattern where we get dry summers and all our rain in the winter three months. |

BNSF 5921 |
Description: |
BNSF 5921 off to herself in the power corral, apparently refusing to be part of the UP lashup behind her... guess shell just sulk by herself in the rain up near the end of the inspection pit shed. |

CSX 8856 |
Description: |
CSX 8856 hiding way up in the turn-table spur to the north of the service area is an odd-little visitor to have in our area... figured Id include the background edge of United Grain terminal so she could use this as a postcard back to home where I believe theyre having sun and moderate weather... well, except for the hurricanes to the south along the Atlantic Coast. |

UP 5372 - BNSF 1106 - BNSF 7045 |
Description: |
UP 5372 - BNSF 1106 - BNSF 7045 back in the power corral - and its not that its a bad color combination, just not one that until relatively recently did we see very often. Then again, after the oil-can topple (less than a dozen cars) over on the UP side of the Columbia River with resultant loss of the mains - everything was predominantly diverted to our (Washingtons) side of the river. Good thing oil prices were down and the number of unit trains with oil and coal dropped significantly - the previous year or so wouldve been a royal mess. |
