UP 4141 on OLS Special
Author: TexBob

Here's a few stills from my chase of the UP 4141 this past Friday.
1 & 2- Flatonia, waiting for a signal to enter the Cuero sub
to wye the train.

3- Flatonia, EB after wyeing its train, the 4141 pulls up to re-load
its guests after a lunch at the Flatonia railroad pavillion.

I wonder what the UP paint shop thinks of all these different paint schemes--it may be a pain in the a-- or a relief from monotony!

Actually, UP contracted out the painting of the heritage units and the Bush unit to the Wisconsin Southern Horicon, WI paint shop.

Thanks for posting the Houston-Flatonia special. I wanted to make it out to shoot here myself but work said otherwise.
