Union Pacific 8131 8133 8137 8135 WB Manifest C.P. Hickory West Bottoms Kansas City Missouri
About to pass the border between Missouri and Kansas, (the train is in Missouri while the state line is directly under the overpass I'm shooting from), a westbound Union Pacific manifest with four spotless new EMD's charges through Kansas City's West Bottoms at C.P. Hickory on UP's Metro Subdivision. May 25, 1997
Dazzling in UP's enduring Armour Yellow and Harbor Mist Gray paint scheme, today's train is led by month old SD9043MAC's, the 8131, 8133, 8137 and 8135, (all built in April, 1997). From an original group of 309 9043MAC's on UP's roster, 100 were sold to NS for rebuild in late 2014 while the remaining two thirds are currently inactive in storage.
