Western Railroad Discussion > UP 7762 East at Evanston, WY

Date: February 22, 2025
Video duration: 3 Min 32 Sec
Note: Location is at the UP Depot in downtown Evanston.

This is the final clip of UP 7762 East running between MP 963.2 and
MP 917.2 on the Evanston Sub.

This seemed like a well-powered high priority freight and a chase-candidate
to see how it covered this distance of 46 miles. Turned out to average
27 mph with about half of that distance spent climbing up Echo Canyon, facing
green signals all the way.

Very nice cricket, never seen or filmed the back side of the Evanston station.  Nice video.  Now expecting more on the 0-6-0 at the roundhouse.

You have had a couple videos now showing an eastbound train with carload traffic on the headend, then a block of vehicle racks, and finally a very large block of both domestic and international intermodal containers; I'm guessing this must be some sort of IOANP with a pickup at Lathrop?

Edit:  I just noticed that you have three videos posted of this same train.  Regardless, I'm guessing this is a regular train?

Also, thank you for showing the entire train.

That second auto rack looks good. Wonder if it will be spotted in Las Vegas in March, April and May?
