Heard this was coming into Salina Ks on the MDVSI, so while there last Monday, I spotted it on a track west of the servicing area. This is best shot I could get from a public road, as I did not want to trespass to get a better one
I cannot read the writing in the side of the loco. Which commemorative unit is it?
2002 Salt Lake City olympics comm.
Thanks Ed, I could not get closer without trespassing, so had to work with what I had
Got another chance yesterday as I heard it calling for a track warrant, hopped in My car and nabbed it a couple miles west of Abilene Ks

I was thinking the same thing myself. Is the UP continuing to repaint it in the SLC Olympics paint scheme?
