Good afternoon from Vancouver Washington

I have seen on various websites that UP purchased a number of rail cars from the greenbrier presidential express in 2014. and i have found some of those cars near their in service heritage fleet car storage facilities in Counsel Bluffs Iowa on Google Earth. Also, in Cheyenne I also saw that they have many baggage cars as well as some sleepers, a lounge and apparently some former SP Heavyweight coaches in Daylight paint. all of these cars are out of service and are not mentioned on UP's Heritage Fleet page

so i am curious if Union Pacific has even more vintage rail cars kept away somewhere.

here's a link to a google earth project i made with the cars that i found

If you capitalize UP or simply say Union Pacific, someone may be able to help you with your question. I had no idea at first what "dies up" meant!

I suspect that if you did a little research you could easily find your answer.

Sorry for the confusion my friend. My computer has been having trouble with typing the correct characters.
