Shortly after 8:00pm, UP's MRONY heads east out of Rocky through Barbara's Gulch. The light was all but gone at this point, so I setup for a "watch the train blur by" shot. UP 1989 was the second unit on the consist, as you can somewhat see in the shot.

It's almost as if 1989 has glaring eyes because they won't let her lead! However, nice picture, like usual.

The shot is artistically attractive. Light from the headlight lends an effective appeal. Well done!
