| Description: |
UP 2564, a new C45AH built in May of 2015, sits overnight at the Texas City Terminal Railway's Yard in Texas City, TX, which is about 40 miles southeast of Houston. The crew left the nose light of the UP 2564 lit, so it washed out the nose of the unit in this long exposure. |

UP 8222 Leads the Texas Eagle (Fuzzy) |
| Description: |
I regret that my focus didn't play nice, but I'm still happy I was able document this. In mid-January 2017, Amtrak's northbound Texas Eagle #22 broke down at Big Sandy, TX (about 110 miles east of Dallas) and UP had to send a locomotive to rescue it. Eventually UP 8222 came to the rescue and brought the train to its next stop of Longview (15 miles east of Big Sandy), arriving 4 hours and 39 minutes late. UP 8222 stayed with the train until St Louis, where another Amtrak unit replaced it. The train eventually arrived in Chicago 6 hours and 23 minutes late. |

Sitting at the St Louis Amtrak Station, four head-ends poke out from beneath the overhead walkway. UP 8222 sits with a very late Texas Eagle #22, which it rescued after locomotive troubles hit AMTK 201 in east Texas. On the middle two tracks are Amtrak trains #314 & #304, the inbound Missouri River Runner and outbound Lincoln Service. And on the track closest to the camera is AMTK 54, which will replace UP 8222 on the Texas Eagle. |
