Desolation
The Trona Railway operates one of the most isolate and desolate piece of track in western United States. The scenery of the line along with a full roster of EMD product fresh from the 70s help to attract many people over these empty roads to the mining town.
Clearly showing the colours of their former owners even if they are badly burned by the merciless Death Valley sun, six SDs slowly pull an empty coal train out of Trona, ready to attack the 30 miles uphill ride toward the interchange point with Union Pacific in Searles, the railway's only connection with the outside world.
