UP "Olympic Torch" loco  Contributor's Pick!       
An intermodal train is seen stopped at Delray Junction, Detroit, Michigan, August 10, 2018. Union Pacific SD70M #2001 is being used on the train. This special engine is painted for the “Olympic Torch Relay” train of 2002. That train hauled the Olympic Torch for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. There is one other similarly painted locomotive that was also used for that train. Both of these locomotives have been used in revenue freight service since. Union Pacific had the special paint reapplied. (Canon AE-1 Program 35mm camera, Fuji C200 print film)
