AT&SF at Riverbank in Valley Tule Fog
I think this perspective gives a good idea of how dense the winter-time tule fog could get (and it could get even worse than this). We're at Riverbank, California, east of Modesto on the AT&SF main through the Valley. The fog is denser at night, so you can assume that by this time in the morning it's not as bad as it was earlier in the day. You can maybe see 6-7 car lengths, max this morning. Two SD24s (900s) head a northbound freight out of Riverbank yard this morning, working the tracks as far west as Richmond, where they will tie up.
