Six years ago, on my way home from watching the solar eclipse in the Grand Tetons: me railfanning at the Golden Spike Tower overlooking the Union Pacific’s Bailey Yard, reputedly the world’s largest rail yard.

Hot Metal Cars aka Torpedo Cars, Bottle Cars, etc..
-April 23, 2023
.
These cars go by many names but their role is for transferring molten metal from the blast furnace to the steel mill. The liquid metal gets over 3000 degrees and these cars are made to transport it and can keep it liquid for 24+ hours

The Nevada Northern Railway Museum in Ely is the gold standard for train buffs. With the exception of the gift shop, it is as if the entire railyard was frozen in time from the 1930s. The machine shop (my favorite!) is fully operational and visitors are free to walk in and roam around at will. I'll post some photos of the machine shop later...stay tuned! #SteamTrain #RailRoad #SteamEngine #RailYard #Museum #Nevada #History #Train #BlackAndWhite #Photography #OldWest #LinuxPhotography
