After sitting inactive for ten months, UP finally activated the new intermediate at Kipling on the evening of Wednesday, March 28th. The old intermediate were shut down and laid on their sides along the right of way.

The old eastbound intermediate at Kipling Street lays decapitated next to the right of way. Shouldn't there be crime scene tape up? :)

At Kipling Street, the old DRGW-ear westbound intermediate lies inactive along the side of the rails.

Less than 24 hours ago, the signal was still online and providing information to westbound trains. The heads on the signal will be recycled elsewhere on the system. You can see the old concrete stand (painted black) on the left side of the shot.

Out with the old, in with the new. Here is the new! The old intermediates at Kipling, which were multiple decades old, came down the evening before. This new intermediate will hopefully guide trains on the Moffat for decades to come.

This is the first MNYRO to use the new intermediate at Kipling Street. The evening before, the old intermediate were deactivated and (as can be seen in this shot) laid along the right of way.

UP couldn't have humored me with an east-facing DPU on the tail end of the MNYRO. Oh well...regardless, the MNYRO heads west past the newly-activated intermediate at Kipling. You can see the red aspect on the top head of the signal.
