Union Pacific 7889 and KCS 4863 Shunting Magma Local Train in Mesa, AZ
As of 2020 the Magma Local no longer exists and its work is now served by the M-PXTU.
Locomotives:
UP 7889
KCS 4863
Original description from 2019:
I heard that a Kansas City Southern locomotive was on the outbound Magma Local, so I headed over to Mesa to catch it. If you look closely, you can see that the UP 7889's left ditch light is out.
Also, I'm sorry about the glares, but I had to shoot at an odd angle from the road.

Original description from 2018:
They say to railfan Fullerton or Colton...but they overlook San Bernardino! Lots of freight train action here, and the platform I shot these trains on is very lightly used, thus you won't have a lot of people to talk in/walk in front of your shot like in Fullerton. These are my favorite catches of my recent trip to California.
Highlights:
Union Pacific Mid-Train DPU number 8765, 26:19
BNSF Intermodal, led by SD70ACe number 8444, with an ex-ATSF "Fakebonnet", BNSF 730, 39:21
