This week's update contains photos from the 2005 Dunsmuir Railroad Days. This year was much larger than it has been in the last dozen years or so. Union Pacific brought a pair of passenger cars, the Sunset and Stanford, led by a brand new GEVO. They also displayed UPY 2004 which is the first of their hybrid switching locomotives. The Portola RR Museum brought a train of their equipment including locomotives Western Pacific 2001 and Southern Pacific 2873. The PRM also had two cabooses (WP 484 and an SP baywindow 4107) along with a pair of SP passenger cars.
