Don't know if anyone has started anything for Monday, so here is Union Pacific Monday a PW 2023 AA unit, along with a dummy U.P. that I picked up for about 30.00 bucks. Great running engine well built horn works along with magnatraction, wish they kept this alco style around. HAGD Mark

I don't have a lot of UP in my collection but have these items and a few UP freight cars and cabooses.
Can't have a UP thread without a Big Boy making an appearance!
Here are a few of mine:

No need to be sorry Don.
It would have been a shame not to have seen the Marx UP locomotive. No big deal to lose track of the days .........just don't lose the TRACK.
WOW Don, that Marxs UP engine is older than me! I didn't even know they made model trains back then! Very cool looking, I just might have to keep my eyes open for one just to have it!
Mike, wonderful UP trains! It's a good thing you have that old Big boy to pull that DD35A! LOL Great videos!
Another of my PW Union Pacific 2023 bought dirt cheap, owner said it was inop. gave a good degrease and cleaning and back in action for another 60 yrs. with magnatraction another good runner with operating horn.

that's pretty cool, bet you got some good railroad stories, did you ever get to go in the plant? Down in Utica, NY we have a Union station and back in the day it was a huge rail yard not much left, they filled in the turntable that was a shame, The round house is still in use but as another owner non rail, Changes and history gone. nice post

Mark I was only around 3 years old when they retired I never got to go in the plant. Anyway back then Kids never could do something like that too much liability. I had several friends that used to work there I should have took advantage of them working there and toured the plant. One of them just retired there he worked on the Thermoking Reefers the stories he would tell about working on the Army Reefers were very interesting how they dismount and mount them.

Great looking UP scenes sir.
I've worked with those heavy RR ties in the past...........I would not want to get the guys in the white shirt and the one with the tie on his shoulder mad at me.
Here's a video I just shot of my Lionel UP PA AA's pulling a string of MTH cars that have been upgraded with Gunrunnerjohn's great LED electronics. The many passengers are enjoying a nice ride around the layout:

Good news for you is that they have. Lionel has offered them in many road names in their LionChief Plus line of trains.

"30.00 bucks" .......not sure if that is a fair price for a dummy but it sure is not as a ridiculous price than what can be found on one of the auction sites .
Happy Uncle Pete Monday here’s todays
@Dallas Joseph posted:
Lets see that was two years ago 30 .00 bucks, today they have one for 47.00 or best offer, shipping 19.10, I take the 30.00 and 7.00 bucks shipping 2 yrs ago, then another site wont mention who, 027 passenger car 23.00 and 22.00 for shipping, You can't win today, have to catch it just right, God Speed.
Here we have a Lionel Union Pacific 4-4-0 set with whistle and smoke. The smoke just pours out LOL
