UP 1616
Switching at Hoffman as they make up an outbound train. I would have chased this but they put a poorly painted and worn road engine on the point.in front of it. Although that may have been temporary since the 1616 was supposed to lead.
From the official UP notes:
Union Pacific honors President Abraham Lincoln’s legacy connecting the nation and unleashing economic innovation with a specially painted commemorative locomotive, No. 1616 – a symbolic tribute to the nation’s 16th president. Lincoln’s signing of the Pacific Railway Act of 1862 created Union Pacific and authorized the construction of the transcontinental railroad, connecting the country during a pivotal time and laying the foundation for America’s freight rail supply chain.
