beautiful photos, Cecil! :) Each vagón with its peculiar style...I remember to have read "Union Pacific" in some literature, Kerouac maybe?. Does it still work?

From their current website:

Union Pacific operates North America's premier railroad franchise, covering 23 states in the western two-thirds of the United States.

It could well have been mentioned in a Kerouac novel, however I don't know which one. Trains and highways make for adventure of all types for all people... and the title of this thread I stole.... I mean I borrowed (:lol:) from Bob Dylan.
