Willow Creek Wonder - a photo on Flickriver

            Eight units head north on the Oregon Trunk during a Monday morning. A lone GE spoils the otherwise solid set of EMD standard cab locomotives. However, the flashy Dash 8 does emphasize that this is now a BNSF operation.

This steel trestle over Willow Creek is just west of downtown Madras, Oregon. It was part of the Harriman-controlled Deschutes Railway. The original Hill-controlled Oregon Trunk grade is the dirt road on the left (south) side of the creek below the bridge. 

That is Mt. Jefferson off in the distance.
