Almost no other railroad in this country has retained its historical equipment and honored its past like the Union Pacific. The preservation of its fleet speaks to the high value Union Pacific places on its heritage and its role in America’s history.

The Union Pacific prides itself on its history and retains a fleet of cars from its past to use with excursion trains - these special trains, often pulled by special locomotives such as the #844 allow people to experience a classic passenger train experience in a modern day setting, and often feature special cars such as the  "Promontory"- a 1962 vintage baggage car which has been filled from top to bottom with interactive displays outlining the railroad's colorful and storied history.

The 7-car Excursion train consist features two brand new cars - A Power Car (A modified/rebuilt Baggage Dormitory car prototypically used for providing head end power to the trailing cars) and a UP Business car "Kenefick", forming the head and tail of the excursion consist, which also includes notable cars like the vibrantly decorated Promontory Museum car, with its full-body American Flag wrap, and a pair of Dome cars.
