It's 5:31am when I just began to rise and the X-VAWJAS goes east. Luckily
the Inn at The Dalles has great big picture windows with a great view. |
|
Half an hour later when a ISEG2 throttles east out of The Dalles. |
|
The Portland section glides by the Dalles dam at 8:30am |
|
Meanwhile a tug gets a lift. Tight fit in there. |
|
9:25am has the M-PASVAW past Hood, WA going for a meet with the M-PTLPAS
at Cooks |
|
After the meet the M-PTLPAS pulls out of the east switch of Cooks. |
|
Same train in the "tunnels" area. |
|
Half an our to the rear of the M-PTLPAS is the U-INBROO trash train
shown at the east switch of Bingen. |
|
The trash train is on the approach to Avery, WA. |
|
The MHKSE is rolling west of Biggs at 11:08am. |
|
S-CHCPTL is rolling west of Maryhill just 15 minutes later. |
|
Followed by the V-LAUPTL one half hour later. |
|
UP's own trash train, the USEGL gives Biggs a whiff just past noon. |
|
The S-TACCHC climbs out of Maryhill at 12:28pm |
|
A quarter before 2pm I led a charge up a hill to photograph the MEUHK |
|
|
|
This train had the bizarre sight of three Milwaukee Road Boxcars entrained
together. |
|
At the same time the H-PASBAR is across the river pulling into Wishram |
|
Half an hour later a empty grain train heads east. |
|
MHKPD blasts by Celio Park at 3:15pm |
|
|
|
M-PASLYD gets underway from Wishram shortly thereafter |
|
And after the above train clears, the H-PASBAR starts down the Inside
Gateway. |
