Monday, July 8th, 2024: After seeing that 6706 was on its way the night prior, my friends and I made the effort to catch the train as it arrived into the yard. Originally we planned to catch them somewhere along the Valley Subdivision, but by the time they got down the line, all of our potential spots were backlit, so we settled for Roseville station. We also caught Amtrak 5, the California Zep...

    so it looks as though UPP 200 Omaha had the locked brakes. @ 1:00 you can see a bit of sparks erupt from the front truck of UPP 200. And it also looks like @ 1:01 some fire on the other side of the rear truck of UPP 200 as well. So, from seeing both of these things, I can say with 100% certainty, that both trucks on UPP 200 had at least one brake in the locked position. Which would explain the vast amount of smoke that was generated. Edit: Upon closer inspection of the video. I can also confirm that the trailing axles of both trucks of UPP 200 had at least one brake in the locked position. This is confirmed by the sparks seen on the lead truck of UPP 200 @ ~1:00 and the fire seen on the other side of the trailing truck of UPP 200 @ ~1:01

However, no matter how much attention is given to a mechanical part, it can still fail! Not a big deal when YOUR FLEET is traveling on YOUR RAILS though! I understand when their Heritage fleet consist is traveling, it ALWAYS has right of way!! No public schedules of their travel are available because of the high profile passengers sometimes on board!

However beyond that I only asked the because I do not know. I have no idea how long you were stopped. And I am wondering if the crew on the train fixed it or did they have to bring other people to the train?
