While rolling by UP's Topeka yard on June 3rd, I noticed a pair of FRESH ACM rebuilds, but unfortunately, they were pointed the wrong direction for good afternoon photos. However, that situation changes completely once the sun set, and we become reliant upon the yard lights.
Here, under the distinctive glow of the yard's sodium-vapor lamps, the newly-rebuilt UP 5841 lays over on the 500 track near the yard office. There HAD been a pair of them here, but the 5856 got peeled away to power the MTPNS after its power ended up having problems.
The UP 5841 was built by GE's Erie shops in early 2002, and it was rebuilt by WABTEC's Ft. Worth shop in April/May, 2024. It, and the 5856 had been released to the UP on June 1st, just TWO days prior, so they were quite literally the freshest units on the property at the time.
