While being out of town for my last railfanning trip of Summer 2014, I went to Macdona, TX to get some actions there. I managed to catch an idling ZATLC on cam, but unfortunately it never left the siding.....

Train 1: UP 8631 maritime stacker highballs east and meets an idling WB UP intermodal.
UP SD70ACe #8631
UP SD70M #4681
UP SD70ACe #8570

Train 2: After UP 8631 East passes by, a UP domestic stacker led by a sole AC6000 convert unit leaves the siding and slowly crawls west down the Del Rio Sub.
UP C6044AC #6952

Train 3: UP 7984 second EB maritime stacker.
UP C45ACCTE #7984
UP SD70M #4901
UP SD70ACe #8344

Train 4: BNSF 7571 EB intermodal.
BNSF ES44DC #7571
BNSF Dash 9-44CW #4090
BNSF ES44C4 #6756
BNSF ES44DC #7538

Train 5: An EB UP local led by a pair of HLCX Geeps meet the ZATLC that is coming to a halt at the siding.
HLCX GP38-2 #1036
HLCX GP38-2 #3824

Train 6: When I saw the ZATLC idling at the siding, I wanted to get it moving on film. I've been waiting patiently for almost an hour hoping for it to move, but it never did. It was getting dark, and my only choice was to shoot the rest of the idling consist while leaving the area. :(
UP C45ACCTE #7650
CSX C40-8W #7358
UP SD70M #3826
