ATSF 2740         
There must be an unwritten rule which states that the dirtiest unit in the consist must be placed in the lead. In this case, at least it was one of the GP30s. Six GP30s and 35s bring a westbound over Tehachapi Creek at East Woodford. ATSF 2740 was later BNSF 2440. Date of photo approximate.
