USB Fob Oldies - Vancouver and N. Portland



Doing a little data housekeeping, and ran across these photos, many of which were posted on the old Wordpress version of TWJ.  These were all shot with my first digital camera with a whopping 4 megapixels, and edited with iPhoto. The photos are from the period 2005-2007.

SD90s emerging out of Columbia Draw

Ear protection, or Abba?

Batmobile

Vancouver Center


Potash loads at Rivergate


8th Street, Vancouver

Penn Junction, bound for Barnes Yard


Pullin' on the Peninsula,  just south of Barnes.




Wintler Park, the rural "oasis" in Vancouver, just off Hwy 14, is near the end of the double track.

Westbound grainer.

Eastbounds will hold back to clear the crossing to Wintler Park, and then proceed east on the single tracks after meets. This, even though the signals are out of sight around the curve.



The empty Roosevelt garbage coming off the Fallbrook at 8th Street.

A real GP40! - Ok, so yeah, it is a GP40M on the roster, but this was a CB&Q unit, so that makes it real. For a great roster shot go here.

Must shoot all leasers, it's the law!


HLCX 7199, was BN 7199
