Western Railroad Discussion > Nice Surprise End of Train Device . . .

1 & 2     Yesterday I went out just to shoot anything and whatever was running on the UP Wagoner Sub.  As I watched lone leader UP 6465 MNPNL with mis-matched number boards depart Upson Sdg OK I waited to get a shot of the DPU to find out it was Heritage Unit UP 1996 that had been leading in WY a couple days prior--gotta love it when a big RR system shares all its treasures.
3.           Earlier in the day a hefty MNLNP with UP 5524 leading 6 others plus a mid-train DPU down the main at Cookson  approaching Wagoner OK
4.           UP 3827 MNLKC rolls past UP 25614 in Muldrow OK, a City Dept. property that has recently been repainted but not yet re-lettered and numbered. It was looking pretty ratty the past few years, kudos to the City for makeing it look much better.
5.           On the way home in late evening light at Gore OK UP 8867-5723 lead another manifest towards North Little Rock.

Looks like your day turned out quite nice Brian. Nice catch of UP 1996, a unit I've actually seen in person, lol. I like that spiffed up caboose!
