This sounds likely... since there is a guessing game started I will bite. I am guessing maybe UP 4014 Cheyenne to Omaha and return. (Have to take the new edition to corporate headquarters to kick off the party) Then UP 4014 & UP 844 double head as you stated from Cheyenne to Ogden... possibly they will leave one of the locomotives there in Ogden or in Salt Lake City for a few days at that point and then operate one of them from Ogden/Salt Lake City out to Sacramento and return in time for May 10th celebration in Ogden. Then they would both be present for the big day. Will be fun to hear how it plays out.
