Last night I left work late and as the sun was setting I caught this unusual business consist loitering just outside of Roseville yard. That signal marks yard limit. The train is on the Valley sub. SD59MX and 2 cars. One was the Standford. The other I believe also had an SP heritage name.
A couple of months ago I caught a view of this scene. It was before sunrise, so still not very light. But we were en route to Idaho and could not wait for perfection.
