On a very chilly afternoon 9,000 feet above Sea Level, UP 9633 is doing its best to warm up its surroundings! A few cylinders apparently weren't firing resulting in some descent flames coming out of the exhaust stack. A few minutes later, the crew of a westbound coal empty would stop, shut down and drain the unit.
