The conductor on this single SD70ACe looks out the window as the unit backs across Federal Blvd on Main 1. The unit will be added to the point of a westbound empty oil train. A few years ago, UP laid off all of the engine hostlers in Denver. These hostlers would make sure power changes like this were done before the road crew showed up. Now, the road crew is responsible for doing all these power shuffling activities before departing the yard.
