By the signals |
| Description: |
The 4014 passes the automatics at Lenapah in my last shot of the day. As the train passed, the motorcade of chasers caught up, and I decided I didnt want to get bogged down in the mess. This was a fitting end to the day. |

Through the trees |
| Description: |
One of the less appealing things about the ex MP route was the lack of overpasses, and that there were a number of places that were hemmed in by trees, a situation I would largely not have to deal with on a subsequent chase a week or so later in Kansas. Approaching a crossing north of Nowata. |

First contact |
| Description: |
I went up to Kansas to follow UP 4014 from its overnight stop in Hays to Sharon Springs. The train was back in the yard at Hays, so I went out along the line hoping for a shot that would work for a westbound in the morning. I caught him here at Yocimento, along old US 40, which follows the tracks from Hays to Ellis. |

Public stop |
| Description: |
The 4014 made several public stops this day, as it would the next in Colorado. A couple were posted on the website; some, like Ellis earlier in the day, were not. All of them gave the legion of chasers a chance to catch their breath and get some local shots and get ahead. This would not be much of a factor in the chase strategy between Hays and Oakley, where I 70 was the chase road, but would make a difference later on. The train sits at its Grainfield stop, as depicted by the sign. |
