Chasing a short Union Pacific Permanente Local

Chasing last Sunday's edition of the 54/Permanente Local! No SD40's that day, but a pair of GP40's! 9992 is an ex-Western Pacific engine, so that was a nice treat! It's been a while since I've seen it. They only had one car with them making for a fairly easy chase. Was able to do four spots and probably could've fit in five with no problem, but stuck with four.

Nice vid, it just so funny how gp40s have the same hp as sd40s lol
