The yellow nose paint was for safety reasons, it had nothing to do with the UP.

Awesome shot!!! I wish I had that locomotive. Huge fan of Rock Island. Other wise a 10 of 10

I seem to recall that the yellow came about during the UP influence years in the 60s. I think Trains magazine mentioned something, but you are asking a lot from my memory going back that far. At any rate, this was my favorite "modern" RI color scheme. Regarding the photo, I used Canon F1s and F1n's from 1970 to 2012. Not sure about the film, either Kodachrome X or Ektchrome most likely.
