very nice shot. I sure hope it is spotted somewhere "accessible" near Dolores in the AM (and it remains clear).

great night stuff Bob! Photo #2 with the notch-nose buddy is a doozie. It needs to be Photo of the Day!


Good to finally see some variety coming to L.A. They'll have both the SP Heritage Unit and Bushie #4141 in the same week! No news on where the 4141 goes next?

Sweet catch and nice prompt posting. UP 4141 was at Cheyenne, WY, Sunday November 26th between 11:00 PM and midnight. No one was ready for its arrival that late.

Hmmm.....I had no doubt that there was going to be some good nights shots of this out of Las Vegas!
Great shots, as always!
Thanks

love the last shot with a regular SD70M and 4141 side by side, can't get a night shot better than that!

On some videos of UP steamers on the net, I have heard in the video, what I believe to be a diesel engine running in that first yellow car behind the locomotive (or in similar yellow cars, truthfully, I didn't note number/id etc.).

Is that "car" a full B-unit, a HEP generator, or none of the above?

Thanks!

That's the head end power. Freight locomotives don't have HEP so they have to use a power car.
