UP and CNW SD40-2's power the Milpitas - North Platte (EB) vehicle train. This train exceeded 7000 feet and had a "working" caboose. There were several carloads of railfans chasing this train and they would race east to see it "loop" over itself at Williams Loop.
I got lucky as we were driving by, this BNSF was waiting for a UP to clear the trestle. Just as I got into position, it began to crawl towrds the trestle.
