I read that ‘Northbound’ and was confused momentarily also. Then I realized that the “California Coasters” run in Push-Pull mode without turning around for the return trips. You are seeing a locomotive on the south end of the train… pushing the train northbound ahead of it. Mystery solved.
These trains have a control-cab in the end car that has remote locomotive controls, so the engineer sits in there with a forward view of the tracks ahead as he controls the pusher locomotive in the rear.
your eyes are sharper than mine.
Right and hope they ignore the impeach Trump for no reason lefties having a temper tantrum because they lost both the vote and their paid for by the democrat party made up insurance policy fake news.
Hopefully while they’re busy trying to find away to win by opening the borders, changing the electoral vote and allowing 16 year olds to vote they’re not inadvertently interfering with Trump actually doing business getting things straightened out.
When I was 13-14 was in the Civil Air Partrol ” anything for a girl to learn to fly and sky dive” used to watch these 5 little kids of a Air Force pilot. They were good kids easy to watch. Dad was back in Vietnam Nam and those little kids had to wake up one day to a crying mom who had to tell them daddy’s not coming home. Daddy’s in heaven now. Daddy plane was shot down. Wasn’t for first kids I met who lost their dad.
What about them? I’ll never forget how they did not get the compassion or respect they and their ” family’s” deserved.
Memorial Day
Although most my family was in WW1 and WW11 let’s not forget the Viet Nam veterans. The People have not of yet made up for the way they were treated in a impossible war they shipped them off to many right out of high school. They didn’t even have the option.
Now I look at border patrol also in a impossible overwhelming situation being treated badly. You know what side these same people would of been on in the 60s.
Seems like Trump knew exactly what he knew what he was doing when it came to trade.
China has limited choices. If they want to escalate they better sell all US Treasuries right now, and cut off all exports of REM’s
Otherwise, they better make a deal, even a bad deal. RIGHT EFFING NOW.
Yeah I know, same here but we got the brain dead lefties with blindfolders on wanting something to argue about calling it race instead of a barbaric culture that wants to genocide everyone else.
Question is when are they going to start deporting here? Save us the prison bills and American family’s grief they will cause who didn’t sign up for the immigration of these meandering mess in the first place. We have it hard enough without them adding problems like that to it.
I read they’re are parts of Africa now banning Islam all together. They’re leaving Ireland because their kicking their behinds for threatening women. The Netherlands planning on banning Islam and Mosques and more.
They are all saints and angels…as are the garbage pouring over the mexican border….and then there is evil ole israel…the only place in the middle east where CHRISTIAN ARABS DECLARE THEY FEEL SAFE…
From A retired Air Force officer I know.
Said concerning Islamic Immigration to America. Why should we tolerate Hezollah or Hamas in California or other places?
They are here. Raising money, reciting members, creating staging areas and safe houses.
Iran’s Plans to Kidnap and Kill More Americans

* A leading Republican lawmaker, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), also the ranking Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, has pointed out that recent intelligence obtained about Iran’s threat was extremely detailed.
* These are simply preemptive measures that any rational state would take in the face of those clear threats. They were being taken to save the lives of American citizens and prevent the world’s official leading state sponsor of terrorism from destabilizing the region.
* What do critics of the Trump administration expect the American government to do…? Do these critics want the Trump administration to ignore Iran and its terror groups until another terrorist act like 9/11 occurs? Or is it possible that these critics, deep-down, do not care about U.S. national security and the lives of ordinary citizens?

While plans were being concocted to harm or murder Americans, it is mind-boggling that people — even entire governments — were criticizing the Trump administration for preparing preemptive measures against multiple credible threats from the Iranian government and its forces.
While people were squabbling over the choices the Trump administration was making, the Iranian leaders, known to have mastered conducting asymmetric warfare, were giving directives to kidnap and kill American soldiers.
A leading Republican lawmaker, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), also the ranking Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, has pointed out that recent intelligence obtained about Iran’s threat was extremely detailed.
“To the extent I can discuss it, it was human intelligence,” he said, and addedthat, “One of the Hezbollah cells is known for its kidnapping and killing operations, and their directive was to go in and kill and kidnap American soldiers.”
According to leaked reports, Qassem Soleimani, the head of the Quds Force, the elite branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) that is mandated to advance Iran’s revolutionary and political interests in foreign nations, recently traveled to Iraq and met with the leaders of Iraqi militia groups that the Iranian regime controls.
Iran’s most senior general instructed the Iraqi Shiite militias to “prepare for proxy war”. Iran’s leaders continue to exert significant influence both directly and indirectly in Iraq through a conglomerate of more than 40 Iraqi militia groups that operate under the name Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF).
Soleimani is also well known as one of the Middle East’s deadliest operatives, and is considered by many Iran’s most dangerous man. The Quds Force has, in addition, given birth to a variety of designated terrorist groups, including Asaib Al-Haq and Kataib Al-Imam Ali (KIA), which usehorrific tactics of torture similar to the Islamic State (ISIS).
Kataib Al-Imam Ali is, like ISIS, known for showing videos of beheadings and burning bodies; Asaib Al-Haq reportedly receives more than $2 million a month from Iran…
another possibility – perhaps the photo is swapped left-for-right.
One more lie is Sunnis want to avoid extremism. Was Obama and his Iranian administration behind the brutal murder of a innocent little boy.
When it comes to their religion both are a religion of violence. Sunnis aren’t any better.
A six-year-old boy was reportedly beheaded in front of his mother at a Saudi Arabian mosque for belonging to the wrong branch of Islam.
Zakaria Al-Jaber’s mother reportedly watched her son being stabbed in the neck with a piece of glass until he was beheaded.
Zakaria and his mother were approached while visiting a shrine to the Prophet Muhammad in Medina and asked if they were Shia Muslims, The Mirror reports.
The mother allegedly said yes, and shortly after a car pulled up beside them, an occupant from the car snatched Zakaria away from her and stabbed him repeatedly.
Saudi Arabia’s prominent branch of Islam is Sunni, accounting for almost three-quarters of the population.
A social media campaign has since emerged online called #JusticeforZakaria. The hashtag has already spread widely, with people sharing heartfelt tributes to the young boy.
The Shia community in Saudi Arabia are also mourning for Zakaria.
Washington DC-based human rights group, Shia Rights Watch, told The Mirror there has been no intervention from Saudi authorities.
It says North bound . Someone IS dreaming , unless the train is running in reverse .
But a great photo anyway !
