Beautiful shot Jim. The silver trucks and fuel tanks sure look good. As an old man of 86 I associate silver trucks on locomotives with whitewall tires on cars of the past. I wish that UP would go back to silver trucks, but I realize it’s an extra expense.
Thanks for posting, and best regards.

Since they only look good when they're new (or clean), I'd rather see them do black underframe and trucks like they do on some of their older units. The silver tied into the Warbonnet scheme nicely, but looks out of place with the orange and black anyway - and quickly ends up looking like crap as it "weathers."
