Power Change for Departure — UP 6028 Takes the Lead in Phoenix | VR180
After a long morning of waiting at the east end of Union Pacific’s Phoenix Yard, the departure finally begins to take shape. UP 6028 and UP 7322 arrive from the main line and back into a waiting consist led by UP 7946. After coupling to the train, UP 6028 becomes the new lead locomotive for the outbound departure.
This VR180 recording captures the real pace of railroad operations—locomotive movements, crew coordination, coupling, and train preparation before departure.
Location: Phoenix, Arizona
Equipment:
