Westbound west of Lime Spur

With the run-around having been completed in Sonora and the train reconfigured with the caboose on the tail and the 42 on the point, engineer Joe Francis settles in for a westbound ride as the short freight drifts downgrade from Lime Spur toward Jamestown. An empty tank car and two loaded hoppers of lime trail behind the Baldwin with the headlight not yet switched on. The train will stop and do some switching at Keystone where it will add a couple of loaded wood chip cars to the consist before packing it in and heading for Oakdale.
