DOh! |
Description: |
I dont know what happened. Finally the train I was waiting for arrived; and something caused my camera to make the image blurry. :( Still, it was quite the sight to watch the hot Z-train from Denver to Salt Lake being headed by UP 1982! |

MNPWC Arriving in Salt Lake City |
Description: |
A massive train longer than two miles, stretching from one end of North Yard to the other; fouling up the grade crossings for a long time... This thing was a true beast to behold and a testament to the strange "Monster Train" mentality that the Union Pacific currently has going on it. |

MNPWC At the Yard Portal |
Description: |
This monster train once it settled into North Yard, had one end sticking out on the main on the northern portal, and the head end sticking out on the main on the south end. This would not be a big deal if it was just here for a crew change... but the MNPWC drops off cars and switches a bit in Salt Lake City! Not to mention at the same time on the opposite main was the MWCNP also due to switch a bit in SLC. The switching moves pushed the train even further south down to the North Temple UTA station, and as night fell and we left, it got the signal to pull forward down into Grant Tower to continue its switching moves. These two monster trains probably gave the yard master a headache that night... |

Monster Train |
Description: |
"The Flagship" the MWCNP arrived in Salt Lake with a train nearly two miles long. Shortly there after its counterpart the MNPWC would arrive in Salt Lake with a train longer than two miles. Both had to fit into North Yard at the same time and try and switch out their cars, yikes! |

The Chase Begins |
Description: |
Yesterday (1/22/2016) Spencer Peterson and Matt Paulson posted on the Utah Rail Enthusiasts Facebook page that UP 7400 was going to be coming from Hinkle Oregon to Roper Yard in Salt Lake City; by way of the Ogden Sub. I set out to catch her at Cache Junction, were I ran across another railfan; Kent Bankhead. The two of us waited; on opposite sides of the track as the southbound train with UP 7400 met with a northbound train at the siding. Here is a photo of the northbound train slowing down to park in the siding. |

Short Train |
Description: |
What I at first assumed was a yard transfer turned out to be a short train that had came all the way from North Platte to Utah. I heard this train is the DPU and end of train cars on an Ogden bound train, and once it hits Ogden, the DPU pulls off with its southbound cars heading to Roper. |
