Along the Line


ABOVE: Ex-Santa Fe GP20 No. 2032 of the Toledo, Peoria & Western (at the time a member of the RailAmerica family) leads and empty grain train into the yard at East Peoria, Ill., on June 9. The RailAmerica portfolio was acquired by Genesee & Wyoming Industries at the end of 2012. — CRAIG MCGREGOR


LEFT: BNSF Dash 9-44CW No. 5124 works west out of Hobart Yard near Los Angeles on March 24 as it passes long-closed Hobart Tower which guarded Union Pacific’s San Pedro line down to the harbor. —PAUL JANSSON


BELOW: CSX train Q012 makes its drop at Worcester, Mass., while yard reconstruction takes place on April 7. Train Q022 is on the main at the right, and Amtrak 449 is barely visible, stopped at the restored Union Station in the background. —PAOLO ROFFO


ABOVE: Union Pacific ES44AC No. 7657 heads east across the dry Mojave River as it leads its train out of California’s Afton Canyon and into the barren desert territory at West Basin siding. — PAUL JANSSON
