Description

Yay for title alliteration! ;P

The UP Sharon Springs sub rarely sees anything but Union Pacific coal drags, grain shuttles, twice-daily ethanol trains, and a mish-mash of merchandise and yard transfer extras. I can count on one hand how many times I have seen foreign power on this line, especially in this section, and that was over the course of six years.

Here, an unusual consist rolls westbound down the line, just west of Yocemento (you can tell I drove by there a bunch). This BNSF trackage-rights-run-through is carrying a load of large-diameter pipe (mostly sewer or drainage mains), with a pair of BNSF GEVOs (#7218 ES44DC & #5733 ES44AC) leading the way.
