Hardcover, 160 pages, 95% Color

The year 1998 proved to be a period of high productivity in terms of locomotive rebuilding, deliveries and overhauls for the Union Pacific. Whether brand new or rebuilt, seven separate builders contributed to locomotive deliveries during the year: EMD, GE, NRE, VMV, Alstom, Boise Locomotive, and Union Pacific itself. Chapters include Zs Along the Truckee, The Rebuild Alternative, Roseville’s New J.R. Davis Yard, UP 1998/1999 Color Pictorial, Farewell to UP’s SW10 Switchers and the 1998/1999 Locomotive Roster.

This book is a pictorial review of the Union Pacific railroad during 1998 and 1999. New locomotive deliveries as well as articles on Roseville’s new J.R. Davis yard, SD40-2 rebuilds from NRE and VMV, and Z-trains over Donner Pass are included. Over 300 action and 75 roster shots make up this book!
