One last roster shot of UP 4014 as it continues west on the Limon Sub toward Denver. The train will stay at North Yard tonight, and an employees-only showing of the Big Boy will take place tomorrow. On Wednesday, it will return to Cheyenne, and be put to bed in the roundhouse, likely for the rest of 2026. Hopefully, it'll be back on the rails in 2027.

I wish the sun had broken through the clouds for this shot of UP 4014 crossing over Kiowa Creek between Byers and Strasburg. However, even in the shot of the train comes across the bridge looks mighty fine. A great way to wrap up the day.

The traffic at Strasburg, CO, the final maintenance stop for UP 4014 today, was absolutely insane! As a result, I skipped Strasburg and went straight to the Kiowa Creek trestle. The train is descending a slight grade, headed for the trestle.

UP 4014 is crossing over West Bijou Creek on the west side of Byers, CO. Half of this trestle was rebuilt about 15 years ago. UP 4014 is over the rebuilt section right now, with the older trestle still visible further to the east beneath the passenger cars.

Just west of the west end of Byers, UP 4014 is approaching the West Bijou Creek trestle. The train is headed for it's next scheduled stop at Strasburg, CO.
