UP 1989 sits on the siding at Brighton as a northbound UP manifest passes by on the main track. UP 1989 is part of an Operation Lifesaver train that is about to take on a whole bunch of police!

The DRGW Heritage Unit is working an Operation Lifesaver train on the Greeley Sub on this particular day. The day before, the unit went to Burnham and got a top-to-bottom cleaning for the event!

A group of Operation Lifesaver officials and police (both from the Colorado State Patrol and Adams County PD) climb up onto UP 5594. The OLS train will run through crossing and watch for people running around the crossing gates.

For this Operation Lifesaver Special, a UP Bayside Caboose is being used. The caboose is sandwiched in between two units, allowing them to operate in a push-pull operation.

A look at the tail end (and "properly-lit") side of UP 1989. It is sitting on the siding at Brighton, waiting for is Operation Lifesaver train to continue its days work.

A nice look at the Operation Lifesaver Special in Brighton...if only the officers that just recently climbed on board had remembered to close the door on the nose!

A photographer for Operation Lifesaver (I assume) looks out the cab door of UP 5594 as the OLS train slowly starts to head south toward the south end of the siding at Brighton. And interesting looking special to be sure, with only a caboose between the two units.
