Now in great evening light, UP 315 thunders by stacks of ties at Loring.
A Geep eases one of the many locals that roam the KC-Topeka part of the Kansas Sub west from a stop
UP 315 takes the MTPTP 09 back east after heading out to Junction City. Late last year UP relocated their track out by the Manhattan Airport to make way for K18 Highway being 4 laned and realigned. With those concrete ties this part of the KP is misleading to being a high density mainline.
Passing Loring Crossovers is UP Train LCM51 14 with that same SP GP60 in the consist.
Unpatched SP 9721 leads UP Train LCM51 12 into Topeka.
