Unstoppable AWVR train
Author: Robert Smith
Photos of a train that I saw on the AWVR that didn't seem to have a crew on it, and a SD40-2 was following it so close it was like it was it chasing it.

I was out railfanning on the AWVR and this train came along really fast and it didn't blow for the crossing. I looked and I didn't see anyone in the cab. There were lots of police cars on the highway and helicopters that seemed to be chasing the train. Weird.
I tried to chase the AWVR 777 but with so many police on the highway I had to stay back. I got up to another crossing but the the train had already passed. Following right behind the train was AWVR 1206. It was almost like it was chasing down the train ahead. Weird.
