Last to the party
Title:  Last to the party
Description:  UP had a major derailment in Wyoming this day. As a result, trains were backed up all the way east to North Platte Neb., This wb, is the first of many heading west after getting out of the NP area. A surprise is the 6 CEFX GP20D's trailing the road power, supposedly heading for the CORP in Oregon. Gonna be a bit longer of a wait for the fine folks at CORP tho.
