It is ironic, but UP 1996 always seems to show up in Colorado in winter. Fairly close to New Years, actually. 2018/2019 was no exception as the heritage unit spent a number of weeks making some trips on the Moffat on coal trains. The Daylight / Black Widow inspired unit is quickly moving toward the second-most shot heritage unit I have, after UP 1989.
