UP 8054
Title:  UP 8054
Description:  UP 8054 quickly disappearing to the east as single pusher on double-stack... and, honestly, as soon as you break through the doors on the open air observation deck looking out over the sea of rail activity, it nearly blows you over... that or its the seventy mile-per-hour "breeze" - one or the other - but its a little overwhelming trying to grasp the magnitude spread before you.

(Dang! I dont want to tell you how many frames I had to dig through to get those registry numbers - when the units are packed in tight like this, its not easy (although youd think after over 320 frames at the Golden Spike Tower overlooking Then Union Pacifics Bailey Yard Id get something... least youd think... until you toss that statistic up from them: 155 trains per day, 70 coal trains, 10,000 railroad cars every 24 hours, 8 miles, 985 switches (dang, and I thought I blew my turn-out budget), 2,850 acres over 8 miles long... and we spent less than 2 hours here... sorry, whining done.)

Description:  UP 8797 sixth from the east and behind the re-registered unit (and getting only a single image of this one since I kept returning to the one to her nose trying to get a better picture... never did, unfortunately... although I did watch her tantalizingly sliding around through all the unders, loops, and overs until she disappeared into the distant westbound lanes).

UP 8926
Title:  UP 8926
Description:  UP 8926 sitting ready, likely for pusher duty... and the funky and loose crop is to try and help explain the magnitude... that background wall behind the trees? Layer-upon-layer of freight cars (autoracks, filled open hoppers with coal, and behind them another umpteen tracks)... so UP 8926 is barely in the middle of it all, because not show in the foreground is several layers deep of rented yard power along with various UP yellows (not shown in this crop). So looking at a map of all the ladders of yards, Im struck by "holy crap" - almost enough to make a non-foamer foam.

UP Y3005 - UP Y3006 cow-calf
Title:  UP Y3005 - UP Y3006 cow-calf
Description:  UP Y3005 - UP Y3006 cow-calf / power-n-slug pair way off in the distance... initially I missed them (although they appeared as small smudges in the distance on previous pictures) until finally noticing them while tracking the re-registry power move. I didnt even know they still had any functional slugs in the USA, so I felt really lucky to see this pair (off in the distance working the westbound areas).
