BNSF 4043, 4049, and 7495 Just After Sunset  Contributor's Pick!       
The train is on Track 1 (westbound) makes a big looping S-curve (Track 2 does not) no doubt to reduce this portion of the grade up from the Colorado River to the high (Mojave) desert. This is a hugh (probably empty containers and pigs) train with two DPU pushing. You can see the parts of the train to both sides of the picture.
