Photo ID: 108905 Date Shot Photo By Friday, November 11, 2022 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed East of Pine Bluffs Kimball County, NE 445 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Sidney (UP) Union Pacific Interestingly, this hospital train is configured with a manned mid-train helper, UP 8198. The crew on the unit was in constant contact with the crew at the end end. The equipment being donated to the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America museum is all head of UP 8198. The train also had some gondolas and center beam flats in tow, for what purpose, I am not sure. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The lighting on the side of UP 5716, UP 3985, and UP 5511 is wonderful. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

I overheard the crew on the train mentioned that this is the first time in at least 70 years at UP 5511 has been in Nebraska!

The "green jacket" turned out to be some yellow tape that was part of the operation. The sun is starting to get low as the hospital train rolls past a small elevator.

As a result, it is not at all uncommon to find mid-train swing helpers in double stacks. Case in point is this ES44AC! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Seeing so little intermodal traffic in Colorado, it is always interesting coming up to the Overland and seeing almost nothing but intermodal trains. An afternoon storm is rolling in to the area from the west. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 106133 Date Shot Photo By Saturday, July 23, 2016 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed East of Pine Bluffs Kimball County, NE 1446 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Sidney (UP) Union Pacific A westbound double stack (with a single DPU on the tail end) rolls slowly west on Main 1. Note the headlight of a eastbound in the distance. That train had to stop after tripping a hotbox detector. The conductor had to walk the train and the westbound is rolling by slowly as a result.

Photo ID: 106132 Date Shot Photo By Saturday, July 23, 2016 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed East of Pine Bluffs Kimball County, NE 1498 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Sidney (UP) Union Pacific While waiting for the departure of the Cheyenne Frontier Days train, I wandered over to Pine Bluffs on the Wyoming-Nebraska state line. The weather was deteriorating quickly and the contrast between the sky and the ground was awful. So, I thought a black and white shot of this westbound double stack on Main 1 was appropriate.
