Two units lead an eastbound manifest out of North Platte toward the triple track on the Kearney Sub on Main 3. This is a massive manifest that has both a mid-train DPU and a tail end DPU. This is the final picture I took on this little jaunt to Nebraska for the Big Boy. From here, I flew back to Colorado for some continued action on the Moffat Tunnel Sub.

While in Nebraska to catch the Big Boy, I happened upon a nice surprise when I found this KCS Retro Belle ES44AC. With the CP/KCS merger complete, creating CPKC, the Retro Belle scheme will soon be yet another in the history books.

Approaching the last crossover before entering the east end of Bailey Yard, a westbound manifest on Main 1 is slowing at an Approach (yellow) signal at West Keith. It looks like the train is all covered hoppers, but that is actually just the first half (or so) of the train.
