For its part in National Train Day at Dallas, UP displayed 1988, a SD70ACe painted in Katy (MKT) colors:

Warren's railroad is impressive, in terms of size and scope:

Inside the station was a small, modular N scale layout. Rio Grande and Santa Fe were both represented:

Why not relax and watch Buck Rogers at the drive-in?

Back at Ft. Worth, the modelers there enabled an aerial shot of the "TRE":

Complete with a RDC:

And that's that! I'm uploading a video to You Tube that I shot of action both in Dallas and Ft. Worth. Unfortunately, I forgot the camera was set for 1080p so the file size is huge. I'll post it tomorrow.

Those UP Heritage Units are sweet!! I wish they would make their way out east here to either the River Line or the Lehigh Line (since UP runthrough power has been quite the popular appearances in North and even South Jersey!!)
