UP
1988, the Katy Heritage unit, passing UP 7729 at 1:46 p.m. 1988 was
leading the Los Angeles-Marion, Arkansas Z-train (ZLAMN-24)
LEFT-UP 5976, the DPU on the southbound empty coal train. RIGHT-I
went by the UP's Jenks Shops parking lot on my way home and got this
shot of UP 4141, the George Bush 41 unit, showing the city of Little
Rock in the background. It is being safely stored here indefinitely.
I've heard it had engine problems when it came here, but am not sure if
it's been fixed.
