The yard passed to the Southern Pacific via the Cotton Belt after the Rock shutdown, and obviously the yard became UP property in 1996 with that merger. Depending upon how you look at it, this engine is right at home here. |

The P42 has just brought Amtrak Missouri River Runner Train #311 into Kansas City Union Station, and the train is now headed to BN Crossing to wye. |

Well Deserved Night Off |
| Description: |
The "double power", used on KCT Jobs 310 and 311 usually have the day off on Saturday, and the 1507 will have the night and part of tomorrow off. 1507 is the regular unit for the 217, and is used on the 105 Saturday and Sunday, and sometimes in the morning during the week. As you can probably tell, all 3 of these are veteran Southern Pacific units. |

How Many More |
| Description: |
How many more nights will these signals spin under the stars? How many more trains will be lined up using them? How many more photos will be taken of them in service? Probably not many of any of those things. The replacements are already up, set about 2 feet out of the frame to the left. Their days guarding CP Bravo on the BNSF Ft. Scott Sub. are numbered. |
