Three members of UP's steam crew examine something on or around the piston that drives the rods on the engineers side of UP 844. No issue was found...or at least no major issue...as they were only there checking things out for a few minutes.

UP 1943 sits idle on Main P1 as part of the Cheyenne Frontier Days consist. The Spirit of Union Pacific was unveiled last November in tribute to the brave men and women of the armed services of the United States. The paint scheme includes colors that represent the Air Force, Navy, Army, and Marines.

While waiting on Main P1 at the Cheyenne Depot, an eastbound intermodal (which I shot earlier in the day near Borie Jct) sits on Main P3. The train is waiting for a fresh crew to continue east. A single SD70AH is cut in as a mid-train swing helper.

UP 1943 crosses over from Main 1 toward the Cheyenne Yard at CP W511 as a westbound prepares to pull west out of the yard on Main 4. UP 1943 will stay the night in Cheyenne before departing east of Omaha the next day. It is supposed to tour UP's system, so here's hoping the day will come when I can get some shots of it leading on the Moffat!
