Tuesday morning in Las Vegas with UP 4014
Author: vegasrails

October 8 I was asked by Union Pacific local members to take some individual and group photos of them with UP 4014. While waiting I took this before sunrise photo of UP 4014 (Photo one) and afterward, one of the more knowledgeable employees snapped this shot of UP 4014 and myself (Photo 2),
Now that I was around the train for another day, I decided last minute to see if I could adjust my dialysis chair time and catch it moving one more time. Once approved I was on the road to Sloan Nevada entering Bard Canyon I attempted to look for somewhere without other fans  which there were many scattered in the canyon (Union Pacific Cima Subdivision MP 320-317) the following four photos it what I took away from my part of capturing UP 4014.
Photo 3 UP 4014 enters the Canyon through the rock cut MP 320

Once in the canyon the rail takes a semi S curve and goes through another rock cut. Photo 4 coming out of the first curve. The next photo starting into the second curve through a rock cut and the final of the series the locomotive far ahead being filmed by a helicopter overhead 9out of camera view) and the business car Kenefick bringing up the rear.
Thanks for looking Ken

Great set of photos, glad you were able to catch it.  Really like #s 1,3, and 4.
