Past the elevator |
| Description: |
Like just about every town out here, Cheyenne Wells has an elevator, about the only thing here of any consequence. The 4014 rolls past. |

Rolling to a signal |
| Description: |
There is a siding to the east of Kit Carson, with the typical "traffic light" signal used by the western roads, on each track. This one is guarding the siding as the 4014 approaches. It will make an unannounced stop here. |

Out of the trees |
| Description: |
I bypassed downtown Limon-its kind of a pest to get in and out of, and the tracks are on the back side of town, away from the highway-this is where US 40 rejoins I 70 to head into Denver, along with US 287 up from Amarillo-and I knew Id lose time against the train there, where there was no public stop. A few miles west, I found a side road with some trees, and caught the train rolling out from behind the ubiquitous cottonwood |

The whole shebang |
| Description: |
The entire train is seen at this spot a few miles west of my last photo, still only a few miles west of Limon, its four passenger cars, 11 freight and a caboose in tow. At this point, the line has gained over 2000 feet in elevation since leaving Sharon Springs. |

Hay in the field |
| Description: |
They dont grow much out here, and what they do grow is mostly irrigated. This part of Colorado is on the western edge of the Oglalla Aquifer, which waters most of the area from north to south, between the Missouri River and the Rockies. Hay, however, is grass, which grows here naturally, a good fit for the semi arid climate-about 14" of rain annually-and is seen where there isnt grazing. A small section of hay bales greets the train near Agate. |

The cottonwood is a common tree here. It usually grows where there is underground water, a creek or pond. The leaves turn yellow in the fall, making for a good photo prop. |

The big stop of the day |
| Description: |
The stop that was posted on the UP Steam Programs website was here at Strasburg, where it seemed everyone for 50 miles around turned out. The 4014 arrives, seen from the Wagner St overpass, just west of the station site, and where there is a now isolated yard full of relics. |

A closer in look shows the crowd, as well as the lift truck, and some of the odds and ends that are now land locked here: a box car, a stock car, a former PFE NW 2, and tucked in behind the silos, a pair of DRGW reefers, one of which can be seen to the left of the silo. It seems all of Strasburgs 1402 residents are in attendance. |

Pacing |
| Description: |
Actually, gaining on him. The cadre of chasers was rather thin on this part of the journey, as were 150 plus miles from Denver, the nearest large city, to the west. To the east, a lot of....grassland. Were over 400 miles from Kansas City here, and 140 from yesterdays starting point of Hays. Wallace County Kan has a population of 1400 or so; Cheyenne County Co, 1745. It will be an easy chase day, even in a Winnebago. |

The power and the glory |
| Description: |
The power, the protect engine, and the one getting the attention, the 4014, roll away, having now passed under the bridge. The chase is on for those who can get out-the road is two lane, accessing the I 70 ramp, but the congestion was pretty bad. If you werent parked near the top, you didnt have a chance at chasing the train. |

Ever changing |
| Description: |
One of the things I enjoy about the plains, aside from the expansive, wide open landscape, is the sky. It had rained about four hours the previous night, and that system was still moving off to the east, leaving a changing sky. It would become a feature for much of the days chase across eastern Colorado. |

Caught one |
| Description: |
We were heading up to Joplin for a trip to Pizza Ranch, which wed taken a liking to in trips to the upper midwest, and to Woodys Smokehouse to pick up some barbecue-and just to get out, since it was a nice day in the 40s, after a week of snow and bitter(overnights below zero) cold. As we approached Decatur, a UP nose came out of the trees. I turned at got it at the next crossing, taking advantage of not having to be on the west side of the tracks, as it was mid day. The 30 MPH board is for northbounds, which are coming into an S curve as they approach town. |

Better angle |
| Description: |
A mile or so south, the tracks swing into a right hand curve, giving me a little more sun on this 91 car crude oil train. The leader appears to be a recent repaint, as it was the cleanest UP unit I'd seen in some time. It appears they have dispensed with the nose wings. |

Q391 |
| Description: |
We were riding around Syracuse one day and saw this guy rolling west. We were in my wifes 2001 Stratus R/T, the 5 speed. She asked if I wanted to chase it. I told here there was almost no chance of catching up, given the track speed on the Water Level Route. Next thing, we were on the Thruway going 90 MPH. We beat him to Weedsport, just barely. |

Through the glass |
| Description: |
We were driving through Sallisaw OK making our way to US 59 north, when we were stopped at a light, and heard a horn behind us. A quick dive into a parking lot with a clear view got this going away shot of a coal train through the windshield. Glad I had just washed it!! UP 7174 was a returning friend; I had shot it on the KCS about a month earlier. |
