Passing by an industry in the small town of Burns, WY (population 356 in 2020), an eastbound UP special rolls along near track speed on Main 2. A single C44AC-CTE is pulling a VIA trainset and two Amtrak commuter cars, built by Siemens, for transport to Chicago where they will be turned over to other railroads.

UP 6936 looks a bit odd, sandwiched in between two passenger cars. However, in this case, it is not particularly relevant as the unit is merely a fellow passenger on this eastbound hospital train passing by rocks near Burns, WY on the Sidney Sub.

If there is one thing you can count on, it is that a steam engine on the mainline is always going to attract a crowd! Whether the engine (or engines) are "under steam" (powered) or not! Case-in-point is the not insignificant crowd gathered here to watch UP 5716 pulling UP 3985 (4-6-6-4) and UP 5511 (2-10-2) along with the rest of a hospital train heading for donation to the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America museum in Silvas, IL.

After developing a problem that required some significant attention, UP 5716 has the hospital train back on the roll again at Burns, WY. After dealing with the latest issue, it was decided that the train be restricted to 20 MPH for the duration of its trip.

A westbound UP manifest, with some pipe on the point, approaches the Hwy 213 underpass on Main 1 as it makes its way toward Cheyenne (and its next crew change).
