UP 4804 and UPY 705         
The yard crew finishes building the MBEBE as the yard job sits off to the left with a pair of GP15s. Due to the light action on this line, UP stores a good amount of autoracks and TOFC flats out here, which come and go about once or twice a week. Tonights MBEBE appears to be taking some autoracks back to the city. There might be some sort of mixing center around here somewhere but neither of us are familiar enough with the location to know for sure. By this time, with no other action happening, we decided to head for the hotel and check in. There wasnt much time left in the day so instead of heading south on I39 to Rochelle, we decided to stick a little closer to town and see if CP would send anything at Davis Jct. Unfortunately, the nearest train that would have passed was clear out at Savanna, and it would have been well after dark before it showed up there. So, with that, we decided to call it a day. We picked up Chick-Fil-A across the street for supper and turned in for the night. Next morning, Janesville was on the agenda!
