SP 355, disguised as UP 6248, brings up the tail end of this eastbound manifest. It is rather impressive that, nearly 20 years after the UP/SP merger, there are still several patched Espee units roaming the rails. Obviously their paint has seen better days, but you cannot completely write off the scarlet and gray quite yet!
