4K - Past Midnight Railfanning - Union Pacific YOA72 Job Along the Former ex-WP UP's Oakland Sub!

The Union Pacific YOA72 Job is seen operating past midnight hours after leaving the East Oakland Yard on Jan 12, 2023. They were heading down to the old Former WP Mainline (UP's Oakland Subdivision) In Melrose to bring 15 coil steal cars to R&A Trucking. It would be a rare site to see, Since this line sits quiet, This portion of the line is down to one last remaining customer along the former WP Line. The crew on the YOA72 Job were very friendly. As the surrounding area is not the best place to be. Here's what I managed to shoot that day and hope you enjoy!

Nice video. That is the cleanest GP40 I've ever seen.

Nice catches. Blessings!

Awesome catch!! I was wondering if R&A still got train deliveries
a little bit eerie if you saw those train lights in that section of oakland. I guess the residents are used to that loud horn. Does it run weekly? Also were those intermodal that were being pulled out?
