UP 5699 |
| Description: |
At first glance this appears to be just another among hundreds of Union Pacific ES44AC diesels ... But it is not. Train MDOWC-22 (Merchandise; Dolores Yard [Carson CA] to West Colton Yard [Bloomington CA]) is led by a General Electric demonstrator without a normal model designation – The builders plate (actually a sticker) lists this as an "AC V12 Tier II Prototype". This is a preproduction precursor to the ES44AC, and the UP owned five of them, numbered 5695-5699 (DC-variant demonstrators also were delivered to BNSF and NS). These were built in January and February 2003, and were used to field test the new Tier II emission systems. The train is seen at the UPs Dolores Yard on July 22nd, 2003. (Thanks to Greg McDonnell for the background information on these, and confirmation of the model.) |

UP 5699 |
| Description: |
UP 5699 (both port and starboard side views) - the second trophy sick unit left on our most visible siding of the Vancouver area - right in front of the station platform, elevated as seen from the west - in tribute to visiting power that gives up the ghost at the wrong time (just a mile or two from home trackage - but at least not while ON the bridge between the two sides). Trophy mount UP 7868 and UP 5699 off the same previous head end the day before. |

UP on the Rock Island |
| Description: |
We head west for the next couple of sets, taken on a trip to Denver in August and September. The first set is of a westbound UP train on the former Rock Island Golden State Route, along US 54 from Greensburg Kan to a town called Bloom. Two units have 123 stack platforms in hand, making their way toward El Paso and the ex SP. |

Theyre everywhere |
| Description: |
Many towns have grain elevators out here, not surprising given that this is wheat country. Quite a few of the smaller town elevators are no longer rail served, due to the economics of unit trains. This one still had a siding, so perhaps its still an active rail customer. |
