It spent 5 hours on the siding at Fortuna. Sounds like they got stuck in the hole for something.
Here is the rest of the scheduled trip. So far the eta into Los Angeles that Snuffy posted still stands, but at that time of morning, I see know reason why it would take 4 hours to move from West Colton to Los Angeles.. so I would expect that to change as well. Unfortunately there are no update points between the two locations so once it leaves West Colton - the arrival is anyones guess. Scheduled Arrival West Colton,CA 10/04/08 01:44 Scheduled Departure West Colton,CA 10/04/08 01:45 Scheduled Arrival Los Angeles,CA 10/04/08 05:17 Chris Chris Walker - Forum Owner |

Well, my youngest son and I decided to head out to West Colton. We found UP 4141 rolling slow heading out at Sierra Ave. at 3:02 AM. We headed westbound and parked at the truck stop at Milliken in Ontario. UP 4141 came roaring by at 3:40AM. We hopped back in the 4Runner and raced back toward home, just in time to see UP 4141 once again roaring by at Temple/Valley crossing. It was quite a sight, and so glad to see something I had only seen in photos, and I'm looking forward to the next chase. Time for sleep now, gotta be at work in Ontario at 7:00AM
