Really only one i noticed from UP was on donner Posted from Android Date: 03/17/23 06:20 Re: UP Rotary in Wyoming Author: cozephyr Two cabooses used as 'snow bus' at far left. Here's a better look at UP 25872 and 25809 in Rawlins, WY, on 14 March 2023.

May or may not see action. Not assured to be used right now.
TrackGuy Date: 03/17/23 09:06 Re: UP Rotary in Wyoming Author: wingomann My first thought was "why cut off the roof overhang on the ends. No porch to get the guys out of the weather?" But looking closer it looks like they are ex-Mo Pac with the open ends boxed in. Seems like a bunch of work. Surprised that they didn't just upgrade a full body caboose.
