It is not super uncommon for UP's MGJNY to have a lot of units on the head end. However, generally speaking, most are not powered. In fact, of the nine units on the head end of the manifest here, only the lead unit is under power. There is also a single DPU on the tail end. The other eight units are being transported to North Platte (or beyond), for various reasons. The train is just west of Leyden here, under overcast skies.
