After knocking down a clear signal at East Rocky, UP 1996 leads an extra manifest toward the west entrance to Barbara's Gulch. I say it is an "extra" manifest because it is not a regularly scheduled manifest. Roper yard does not typically send out an eastbound train to North Yard on Sunday's. However, it did on the Sunday after Christmas this year, and UP 1996 was on the point!
