Shows a line of UP locomotives sitting idle in a lineup in the Inland
Empire of California; more than 125 at last count (more than a mile and
a half of locos).

Plenty of box cars are staged in the desert, around here. They await
transfers for the correct UP train. Locomotives may just be at the
service yard.
