It's January, 1947. A cab forward rolls along with the City of San Francisco. Due to the increase in demand from snow-birds flocking west, the train is running at extra capacity, and many of the cars are mix-matched. Although a rarity by 1947 standards, un-matched consists would become common practice as passenger rail in America began declining into the late 50's and early 60's. Route Used: Donner Pass Southern Pacific Locomotive Used: Southern Pacific Cab Forward
It's early December, 1942 as Union Pacific #835 races by with a troop train, bound for Ogden and points west. Route Used: Union Pacific's Wasatch Grade Locomotive Used: Union Pacific FEF-3
Great shot, unfortunately both of these locomotives are not allowed per the screenshot rules. The B&LE route got pulled from the store a number of months ago, so it is no longer official content. Not sure why but the Berk is also not allowed in the contests for some reason.
