Union Pacific 1394 with the Chandler Local Train Long-Hood-Forward in Chandler, AZ
UP 1394 switching at Willis Rd in Chandler.
Original description from 2019: The same locomotive as last time, UP 1394, shunting and taking off with the Chandler Local. I didn't have my scanner like last time because railfanning wasn't what I was here for, but I knew that I would be in the same area in the same time as the Chandler Local so I brought my camera and tripod. It looks like this crossing is not a quiet zone, however the train only blew it's horn once for some reason.

UP 689
