We finish up the trip back at Yucca. Plenty of trains including fast westbounds racing downhill are seen. Arizona is one heck of a railroad state and I really enjoyed my time on the BNSF Transcon and UP Sunset Route. BNSF across Arizona runs around 70 trains a day and its a must see for any rail buff. Scenery is amazing, it follows Route 66 and its one of the few lines in North America not screwed by the PSR virus. Please ignore the wind noise, being in the high desert it was very windy on this day. Anyway, enjoy the video!
