This Bingham Mine in Utah has me fascinated. The place was enormous. This pic gives some idea of the vastness of the place.

This was a common sight in my neighbourhood when I was a kid and passenger trains were still running all over the country. The caption says Union Pacific but they don't look UP to me...

Great shot Randy. My parents took that trip the year my Father retired, something he always wanted to do. Toronto to Vancouver in luxury.
