This eastbound special stopped here, west of the siding at Byers, and held for several hours while waiting for the coal load to get on the move again.

Here, an eastbound UP special crosses over that bridge right at the same time a cloud decides to float on by. Wouldn't you know it! The special is approaching an approach signal at West Byers. However, its current track warrant will keep it 1/4 mile short from the switch. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Upon delivery, the units were leased out to BNSF. That fact makes this an interesting shot, as this is a CitiRail unit, leased to BNSF, and now being borrowed by UP on an empty oil train!
