Amtrak 143 Wendover, UT  

Amtrak 143

Amtrak 143, the second in the consist, caught fire and burned beyond repair. This is looking north. The white car on the road (I-80) is mine. I had to walk across the salt flats, a 1/4 mile or so, and wade through the water (it is probably 100 feet across the water, but only 8 inches or so deep.) Oh, what one does for a picture!
