BNSF 7338
Title:  BNSF 7338
Description:  BNSF 7338 northern most of the group of power stand-by units on the far track in the corral... and still not done shooting. All those Sundays with slim pickings to come, no wonder it came as a shock to see nothing back here.

CP 9649 in an artsy crush between BNSF 4829 and BNSF 7807
Title:  CP 9649 in an artsy crush between BNSF 4829 and BNSF 7807
Description:  CP 9649 in an artsy crush between BNSF 4829 and BNSF 7807... and notice I managed to even capture that Canadian Pacific Beaver logo in the RIP shed behind her! You folks think its easy being this desperate to compose something that might suggest a planned and important image just to get a CP on the found it book for the day?

BNSF 4010
Title:  BNSF 4010
Description:  BNSF 4010 as part of the foursome in the by-pass lane showing off yet more artistic greenery - but providing a different view of some of the machine shops and maintenance buildings at Vancouver Center. Oh - wait - strike that, the second time trying for this unit, I managed to stretch further up to clear the trees and shrubberies - amazing what you can accomplish in 1/500 of a second while falling off a concrete barrier.

BNSF 7990
Title:  BNSF 7990
Description:  BNSF 7990 as seen from the hideous vantage point of a curve almost overlooking the area - and to all those below that had a great laugh at the old, fat dude standing on a concrete barrier, balancing his round little body while trying to stretch up getting the camera as high as possible to clear the weeds and trees - then firing blindly - be sure to toss a good word to RP for the next time Im stopped. Figured I needed to get some shots of the machine shops and maintenance buildings before they, too, are torn down with what appears to be a bit of a shift toward buildings on the north side of the 39th Street over-pass. Then again, Im more confident about the BNSF-NS merger than I am about them actually expanding up that way... course, I wouldve never imagined tearing out the old round-table, either.

BNSF 8006
Title:  BNSF 8006
Description:  BNSF 8006 on the by-pass lane in the maintenance/service area... and there is SO a unit in this picture! If it werent for the drought this year and practically no rain for the past five months, these shots wouldnt have been possible with most of the region severely stunted/killed off (I know - for those suffering professional level droughts, you see the green in the shot and claim Im a liar - just our style drought after being waterlogged for decades leans a little more to green / faster recovery even with a light misting on the impending rains to come.

GN 3613
Title:  GN 3613
Description:  GN 3613 SW-10 on the distant side of the turn-table spur making her return to Vancouver after last seeing her in an odd-power group northbound in Woodland, WA and headed out of town. Not sure what it means to be wearing BNSF pumpkin with BNSF rear-hatch badge... but "GN" at the registry. Bean-counters... Im sure theres a reason.

Description:  BNSF 2276 in the power corral with a pile of other yard units - and after so many months of summer, looks like folks will take a little time getting used to closing hatches and doors again. Rain, wind, and puddles - took it until the last two days of October, but they finally came (we received nearly the entire months rainfall over the next 30 hours).

BNSF 5130
Title:  BNSF 5130
Description:  BNSF 5130 as the most southern unit of four back in the power corral... and theres something really odd about her. Took me awhile - the A/C unit is nearly the correct color! (To make up for it, if I didnt know better, her front toe seems to suggest it was dipped in the mud (rust) compared to all the others.)

Hope they know they just made a mockery of someones custom paint-and-weathering detail job (I keep waiting to see it as a standard option from one of the major model train makers).

Title:  BNSF 8385
Description:  BNSF 8385 at the north-end of four in the power-waiting game - and check out those shadows from the handrails. Seriously. Shadows. In November! (Those in other parts of the country wont possibly understand this unusual phenomenon, but look up the number of clear days Vancouver gets from October to May... dont bother taking off your shoes to help you keep count.

BNSF 7325
Title:  BNSF 7325
Description:  BNSF 7325 second from the northern end of the long power string proving 1/13 of a second is too slow to stop motion blur of the photographer falling off his hillside perch among the blackberry vines (in the rain... in a dress coat... with an inpatient significant other... becoming more significant by the moment as the church bells start to toll at the top of the hill... and I swear, the first person that says I was pushed off my balance point upon the raised sewer cover by a higher power...) the last image before darkness, impending start of services, and threat of divorce sends me scampering back to the vehicle and puttering (quickly) on to our Sunday destination.

CN 2250
Title:  CN 2250
Description:  CN 2250 second from the south in the over-crowded power corral (of course... due to getting caught behind the gates at the station and wye, only a minute or two to try and shoot it all in near darkness before I get the stink-eye from the beloved saying Im making us late for services) under minimal remaining light with rain and autumn working against us.
