Triclops Unit |
| Description: |
At the Utah State University library I found a book from 1989 detailing railroad history in that year. Of note was the large sections of the book talking about Union Pacific recieving its first batch of SD-60Ms and how revolutionary they were. Now, 26 years later the SD-60M is no longer revolutionary, working branch lines such as this. |

New Power at Logan Utah |
| Description: |
Sheesh, the uploader was broken for a few days; so this is a late picture. Anyway, Union Pacific has switched out one of the two SD-60M units and has now placed UP 1768, an SD-40N on the Logan branch. Here they are parked, idle, on a stub track next to Cafe Sabor (former Logan Station). Although the area is clear of snow in this picture, today when I uploaded the picture all of this place is being slammed in snow. |

As the DPU travels down the track, it signals the end of my train day. Good day in railfanning. Got to meet Kent Bankhead, and Karole Sorensen at Cache Junction. Got to see two trains, and a heritage locomotive. And I ate a sandwich, read a few more pages of the novel "The Martian," and freezed in 29 degrees Fahrenheit weather; all while waiting trackside. :) |

The Chase Begins |
| Description: |
Yesterday (1/22/2016) Spencer Peterson and Matt Paulson posted on the Utah Rail Enthusiasts Facebook page that UP 7400 was going to be coming from Hinkle Oregon to Roper Yard in Salt Lake City; by way of the Ogden Sub. I set out to catch her at Cache Junction, were I ran across another railfan; Kent Bankhead. The two of us waited; on opposite sides of the track as the southbound train with UP 7400 met with a northbound train at the siding. Here is a photo of the northbound train slowing down to park in the siding. |

"You Cry" Railroad |
| Description: |
The Utah Central Railway (the UCRY or the "You Cry" as I call it) is one of Ogden's lesser known rail carriers. I rarely see them in action; but UCRY locomotives are often found in the industrial parts of Ogden. |

Power Party |
| Description: |
Several UP units were coupled together in Brigham City. Among them was this particularly interesting SD-40-2; UP 9839. From my understanding when UP gives an SD-40 a number in the 9000 series it is a sign that its as built appearance will soon give way to a SD-40N rebuild. This is the first photo of this SD-40-2 here on RR Picture Archives! |

The SD-60 that had to hang out with the SD-40 units... |
| Description: |
Come to think of it; it is possible this train with over six locomotives on it could be the Malad Local tied down. I am not %100 sure, but the Malad local is known to be power heavy. |
