Last Active CNW Patch Locomotive
Title:  Last Active CNW Patch Locomotive
Description:  The former CNW 8804, now numbered UP 6706, makes it in to 2019 as the last active locomotive to wear Chicago & NorthWestern colors on the Union Pacific roster, with all other patched AC44CW's being repainted and the last patched Dash 9s ending up in storage lines. Spencer's Butte rises in the background.

UP 6706
Title:  UP 6706
Description:  The last active CNW-painted locomotive on UP's roster finally departs Eugene Yard just minutes before losing daylight, after several hours of waiting. It's seen here as the second unit on a four-pack headed South on a manifest made up of mostly lumber loads. UP 2627 leads.

Title:  UP 5790
Description:  A classic sight from the 2000's decade here at Eugene is a 5700-series AC44CWCTE covered in tunnel soot from the Cascade mountains. Though much less frequent now, one is seen here trailing on a Southbound in the Summer of 2019.
