UPY Engine 579, headed east on IAIS mainline at 15th-16th, Des Moines IA
Title:  UPY Engine 579, headed east on IAIS mainline at 15th-16th, Des Moines IA
Description:  UPY Engine 579 was nipping at the heels of IAIS 511 and 509. They paused at the 15th-16th grade crossing to allow some space between them and the departing train headed east on IAIS mainline, Des Moines IA; I was a little surprised they were operating so close to the IAIS train, especially considering the proximity of so many grade crossings.
