UPY 724 - 10/24/2016

            Now that the train ahead has received a favorable signal to proceed across the BNSF diamonds at Rochelle, a Union Pacific local which was following behind is also moving again as it eases down past the late day silhouettes of the Flagg Station elevators. 

It’s the year 2016 and the UP still maintains a small fleet of EMD GP15-1s, but it was extra nice to catch a solid set of three together (UPY 724, 733 & 705) – especially on a line that normally features almost exclusively big, modern six-axle power. – October 24th, 2016 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
