When I went by on Saturday there were two UP engines (one ex SP) at the west end of the power plant.

Yes the C.S.S. & S.B. RR just negotiated with the U.P. to use the U.P’s motive power on the C.S.S. & S.B.'s trackage to deliver the coal.

Thanks for posting those! Been by there thousands of times and always wanted an inside look.
