This is one of my best catches ever. A UP southbound manifest meets the northbound BNSF Sac Local at 14th Avenue crossing at 4:06PM on the UP Fresno Sub. This is the first time I ever caught freight trains meeting while both are in motion. The UP manifest was just departing the area and the BNSF local was just arriving. By where they met at is close to where this line turns into a single track. The BNSF train also had a Warbonnet. Taken with the iPhone 6. More Info Below.
