UP 3828
Title:  UP 3828
Description:  So began our journey of following an Autorack train along Highway 30. This was the first in the series. My wife and I were intrigued because of the FURX locomotive with a paint scheme we hadn't seen before.

UP 3828
Title:  UP 3828
Description:  Shot #13 - This would be a favorite of mine if it wasn't so blurry. It's hard to get a good shot while taking photos of trains moving 60 mph in a truck that's going the same speed. Note that this time, the piggyback train being met actually has trailers.

UP 3828

Description:  Shot #18 - Just outside of Mechanicsville, IA. By this time, we had gotten far enough ahead that we could wait. But the train came through here at more than 60 mph - nearly blew us away!
