Saginaw fog

I spent some time in Saginaw on Sunday morning during a heavy fog. The train traffic was what I like to call "crazy busy". A crew on a yard job was stopped on the BN transfer waiting to get into Saginaw yard. Every time I thought the dispatcher might be ready to finally let them out onto the main, another train would appear out of the fog. I enjoyed the chance to do some shooting in some different weather conditions...

The 308 yard job waits patiently as a northbound rolls past...

Tired of waiting, the track inspector sets off and drives around.
