Hey You Can't Park There!

I swear sometimes when you wander into the mountains you will find the weirdest shit tucked away in the woods. This spot is no exception, as next to the tracks in Alta sits the shell of an SUV. As to why this is here or how it ended up on its side and stripped of everything, who knows. But hey, maybe it can be someone's next project car.

 

Going to the train now, an SP painted leader brought me out here this day. MROMI had UP 6378, one of five remaining SP painted AC44s, leading this westbound on one of SP's most famous lines. Crawling into Alta, the train for some reason had its ditchlights dimmed, which I assume the train had met an eastbound and the crew had forgot to set the headlights back. I would end up following the train to Davis before running out of light and headed home.
