Posted by Wang Halen on February 27, 2013  Outstanding! Posted by Billie Bell on February 28, 2013  Union Pacific Railroad acquired the CNW in 1995 Mr. Danneman. Wouldn't this picture taken in 1999 in fact be a UP freight train? I do enjoy the pictures you post and thank you for sharing them. Posted by Mike Danneman on February 28, 2013  Mr. Bell, It is indeed a Union Pacific coal train as the caption states, but even in UP’s computer at the time, the lead locomotive is a C&NW locomotive until it was patched and renumbered into UP’s roster. Glad you are enjoying the photos. Thanks! (And thanks to everyone else too, for the nice comments!)
