Here are a few images I took from a 24/7 recycling plant in North Las Vegas....that the UP serves everyday

Thanks gang for the comments...if infact the reason the depot closed to begin with was asbestos related problems...that could be the reason for its delay/restoration. Abatement of asbestes costs a few $$...

Captured a few images there the other night. The Amtrak depot has apparently been closed for a few years, at least since 2000 or perhaps earlier. There is a passenger waiting room just a block from the station, in a converted tattoo parlor.

Good one Jeff! Here is a better view of its emblem from the side

Last one for now...of a US Army flatcar, with a builders date of July 1944.

Yes Brian, sorta...the 20D has a built-in filter system (Red, Yellow, Green etc) if you shoot directly in B&W,which I did. I used red for these. I still love to shoot in B&W, a throwback to my Tri-X days! 25yrs ago!! LOL

Here is one more, a crossbuck at a different area within the depot.

Caught these two old US military cars, the first one, a former SAC (Strategic Air Command) missle testing car The second one an old US Army 40' boxcar, with a builders date of 1943. Both taken last year out at Tooele Army Depot, Tooele, UT.

The first pic is a stack train. You're seeing the blur of the red container, going by my position as it is illuminated by the overhead light.

Thanks for the comments guys, I use a Canon 20D
