Quirk
BNSF 8319 charges westward on the Gallup Subdivision at milepost 66 near Quirk, New Mexico, with the mesas of the San Mateo Mountains as a backdrop. We saw and shot a few westbounds here from various angles, but this train with its conveniently placed mid train DPU set looked the best to me.
This shot is taken from the side of a dirt road, only a minute off of the highway. It was easy to forget that we were still in the desert, until a tarantula and a large snake revealed themselves closeby during the trains passing
