UP 8778 |
Description: |
Delivered to Union Pacific in June 2012, a little over a year in service and still in decent shape. I'm not a fan of the SD70ACe but the UP scheme fits this model well. |

UP #8778 with red markers up top! |
Description: |
UP #8778 was one of two locomotives to have red markers that were used during an experimental project around 2016 where #8778 & #8777 were converted to run off of liquid natural gas that was fed from UP natural gas tender #101. The units were converted back to run off of diesel, but retained the red markers. More info on the markers would be appreciated. Were they lights, or reflectors? Were they ever illuminated? Why did they need these? |

Caught one |
Description: |
We were heading up to Joplin for a trip to Pizza Ranch, which wed taken a liking to in trips to the upper midwest, and to Woodys Smokehouse to pick up some barbecue-and just to get out, since it was a nice day in the 40s, after a week of snow and bitter(overnights below zero) cold. As we approached Decatur, a UP nose came out of the trees. I turned at got it at the next crossing, taking advantage of not having to be on the west side of the tracks, as it was mid day. The 30 MPH board is for northbounds, which are coming into an S curve as they approach town. |

Better angle |
Description: |
A mile or so south, the tracks swing into a right hand curve, giving me a little more sun on this 91 car crude oil train. The leader appears to be a recent repaint, as it was the cleanest UP unit I'd seen in some time. It appears they have dispensed with the nose wings. |
