Hello C44AC-CTE! I personally am very glad that UP started putting the wings on the nose of their units again. The nose is just too darn plain and boring otherwise...

In the Rio Grande days, the switch at the west end of Cliff was a "Y" switch. In other words, you diverged slightly whether you were staying on the main or taking the siding. Union Pacific has done away with that, however. Now, the main curves to the left before reaching the switch. Here, a westbound coal empty runs over the switch, passing the MNYRO which is tied down on the siding.

The conductor on this MNYRO has left the cab (and left the door open) and is now tying down cars on the train. No relief crew is available to take this train west, so here at Cliff it will sit and wait!
