2. On the new RailsWest blog we just published one of our best posts ever…

One of my favorite posts we have done in a while about a night train. It is all about getting some cattle south to get them out of harms way from a winter storm. Check out the blog post. It reads like a very short story! It has a night train, bunking down in the caboose, tumble weeds, a ghost and much more.

If you enjoy these images and short trains slowly moving across a remote land to serve a few scattered customers, the new RailsWest is for you.

“Out in the middle of nowhere, a single car to pick up, light rail, little ballast, just laid back easy going railroading.”–B. Smith
