Regardless of my opinion of UP for ending all other steam programs on its many rail properties, this great photo shows how commited to steam they still are!

I have a shot of this during the northbound run, when the UP was in lead, from just about this same location. However, I discovered, too late, that I was too close. I have a great closeup of the wheels and drive mechanism. Guess I should have experimented beforehand.
