Union Pacific 4533, SD70M, on a 10-car engineering special waited for Amtrak's California Zephyr, train 5, with 60 and 82 to pass before following her west.  The UP 4533 covered the North Yard, Denver to Grand Junction, Colorado, segment on Wednesday, 27 August 2025.  NO sound video.

Following the above trains was the Rocky Mountaineer with RMRX 8020 and 8021 near Plainview, Colorado, 27 August 2025 on UP's Moffat Tunnel Subd.

Very nice an SD70 was chosen for the honor. Someone recognizes a classy locomotive when they see one.

More likely it was available and not really needed. Either have it pull the OCS trains or sit in a storage line.
