Still waiting at UP Armourdale Yard awaiting repairs to the wheels. Hard to believe 3 weeks ago this engine was shoving N&W 611 into the roundhouse for restoration in Spencer, NC.
Although UP 5042 (SD70M) and UP 949 (E9A) are separated by 42 years of age, I imagine this scene is similar to what might have been photographed in the 1950's.
