S Curve and Searchlights

A quartet of GE products rolls past an old SP searchlight still protecting Chaney Jct in west Houston. At Chaney, the Freight Main of UP's Houston Sub (that this train is on) rejoins the Passenger Main, which goes off to the right to Downtown Houston and the Amtrak Station.

 

In June 2024 UP erected new Vader signals here, so these searchlights are unfortunately not long for this world.
