Western Coal Train Picture Index

You are at: CarrTracks > Gallery

The Western Coal Train Picture Index begins in the Northwest and then moves geographically east and south to Texas, then west to California. After selecting a picture, use the Back button on your browser to return to this page. The left browse button at the bottom of each coal train picture page will take you to the report on Western Coal Trains. The right browse button will take you to the next picture in sequence. So, to view all of the coal train pictures, start at Kootenai, ID and then just click the right browse button at the bottom on each picture page. I am working on video clips that will be added to the website as well as a series of VHS video tapes for the railfan.
