If Two Medicine Creek bridge is adjacent to the most photographed barn in Montana, surely this must be the most photographed lake with its imposing backdrop and rail action. |

| Description: |
The ES44s seem to have taken over the Transcon so that the occasional interspersion of a warbonnet, a blue and yellow or much else now appears rare indeed. Even the heritage green trim seems to be disappearing. |

Cantilever Contemplations |
| Description: |
BNSF 7617 brings a westbound manifest over the top of the grade from Belen past Dalies, junction with the old passenger main via Raton Pass, where several classic Santa Fe cantilevers still stand with their ornate metal framework and right-side display alluding to the era of long boilers or geep-style cabs. So many of these aesthetically appealing cantilevers have fallen that their once ubiquitous presence about the system is now a matter of the unique and of almost quaint reflection upon a different era when each railroad had its individual character and style. |

Coming through Kyune |
| Description: |
BNSF 5368 eases its consist down the steep grade through Kyune, UT. A pity there is not more overhead traffic on this route since the closure of Tennessee Pass, yet the BNSF trackage rights business adds a little. |
