A single SD70ACe brings up the end of UP's thrice-weekly MNYGJ. The is typically called at North Yard at 1800, but on this day, it was called around 1200. Unfortunately, the 7,100 foot manifest has stopped because two units on the head end have mechanical issues. Shortly, the train will pull forward to clear west Rocky, then back down between switches on the siding. However, it would turn out the train could not fit between the west switch and the derail at the east end, so the train would back all the way down to (near) North Yard for a power swap.
