A westbound Union Pacific freight led by AC4400CW-CTE No. 5519 is just east of Arlington, Nebraska, on August 16, 2012. In a panned photograph, the American flag on the locomotive’s side seems to be whipping in the wind, seemingly honoring all those men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Happy Memorial Day 2013!
Pace and pan shots of trains from on the ground or in the air. If you're not in the locomotive cab or on-board the train, it's the next best thing to being there.
