A quartet of fresh GE B40-8 locomotives pull merchandise east through the now abandoned Ogee Cutoff between Pantano and Benson, west of Mescal, Arizona.
In 2010, this track was bypassed to a new location north of Interstate 10, reportedly shortening the distance by five miles. UP stores surplus locomotives and spine flats on this track today.
