Artsy

In September 2007 the Operation Life Saver train paid a visit to Eugene. OLS is a cooperative effort between the railroads and law enforcement groups to publicize grade crossing safety. The UP supports OLS by running a set of their restored vintage passenger equipment around the entire system, giving rides to the public and garnering publicity for the cause.

I captured the train in the glinty light of morning, sitting at the Eugene station. The golden glow of the early sun gives the train a surreal look.

A more normal view of the train:
