Union Pacific Yard Action w/ an eastbound vehicle train

[jmm2000]

UP 547 is a GP38-2 and UP 1497 is an GP40-2M, one of Cotton Belt's unit delevered from MK for Sothern Paciifc. MK delevered also to SP about over 100 SD40-2Ms (former SD40's and SD45s) and three MK5000C units that didn't so well. The MK5000Cs (Three from SP and three from UP) ended up going to Utah Railway.

Love the creaking of the cars... when my family had a cottage in maine i used to fall asleep to that sound. Tracks ran about 1/4 mile up the road.

On the centilever crossing the lights must be leds to relate to metrolink crossings.

Good old Engineer Adcock

[Treyvs]

Hah yea, that engineer is like that...Yesterday he was running around his train and when he came back on the main he smoked it up like an old ALCO. It was great.

Damn he sure was going fast with those brakemen on that hopper's ladder.
