A quick note to the SP fans:

The IOAHO intermodal freight is running with th SP 8308 in the consist. This train sounds on the radio like it is led by the UP 6324. It sounded at first like the SP 8308 was leading, but the UP 6324 got the track warrant to run south on the Mulford Line at 223PM from UP DS58.
This IOAHO is the regular UP afternoon eastbound freight that runs over the
Altamont Pass in CA then goes south down the SP Fresno Line in the Valley.
The UP trace says this train departed Oakland CA as of 215pm (1415).
Here is another chance to find an SP unit on a UP freight!
