Around the Curve |
| Description: |
Coming around the big curve near UP's San Antonio East Yard, Amtrak Train #2 passes a waiting UP Local led by UP 588 and the former UP East Yard Shops. The former UP shops are now used by the Southwest Institute (I believe) for emissions testing. In the shops are two CN locomotives, 2288 and 8822, along with a CSX AC6000CW and ex-BNSF 6304. |
