I had the opportunity to shoot this in much better light a couple times back in 2014 when it was on NS for a while, but, never got it. Now here it is, and hopefully I do see it again, to get a much, much better shot. A GECX (ex-CSX YN2 Dash 8) trails 3rd in the consist

Title:  UP 7256
Description:  UP 7256 brings up the rear of the coal train. This would be the final train of the day, bringing the total count (including parked trains and switchers) up to 35. Tonight we are staying in North Platte, and tomorrow we will be paying the Golden Spike Tower a visit before making our way west out to Cheyenne. Would have preferred getting actually good shots tonight, since UP has all their cool power out again, but oh well. Hopefully there will be some cool stuff at Bailey tomorrow.
