Thanks for the comments. I noticed most everything before but I went back and took another look and noticed the 40' reefer about 1:43 splicing the car racks!

The lazy way of railfanning; video taping from the car. I love it!

At the time the lazy way included 3 kids in the car with me on a freezing day. : )

Did you notice all the snow on the locomotives? Sunny in the Denver area, blizzard in Cheyenne, WY. Fairly typical for that area.

Wow! Quite a few things that stick out in this video that you don't see anymore today:

"Wishbone" crossing gates

A slew of Geeps leading

Leslie horn on the UP, albeit fouled

Uncovered autoracks

Caboose

Thanks for sharing this awesome vintage UP action!
