UP's ZLADV heads down the Greeley Sub through Fort Lupton. A very interesting mix of power on the train. A Phase 2 SD70M leads up the train followed by an SD70ACe, and ES44DC and an AC4400CW. The AC4400CW was so dirty that, from a distance, I have to admit I thought it was an Espee unit at first!

Just south of MP 33, we find UP 1989 as the sole power (on the point, anyway) on the North Platte to North Yard manifest. Perhaps, in an alternate universe, there are hundreds of units painted like this running around on the rails...

Are you a fan of contrast in pictures? If so, then check out the stark contrast between the amber waves of grain and the storm-ridden skies to the east in this shot of the MNPNY being led by UP 1989 just north of Fort Lupton.

After some sever thunderstorms, the sun peaked out from behind the clouds for about 20 minutes prior to sunset. UP 1989 leads a train south toward the siding at Brighton where it will meet a northbound before continuing in to North Yard in Denver.
