Sorry if I failed to mention this and botched your chance to bid.

Two cab ride segments, April 17th, inbound Cheyenne to Ogden, Utah, including one segment over the Great Salt Lake causeway:

Sold for $14,250 each, to benefit the UP Museum Association.

Four cab ride segments offered last year brought bids of $6,000-10,100.

And just when I was going to bid $14,251!!!!

I'm one of the few who has ridden behind the 4014 - but talk about a very very few who get to ride IN the 4014 on the mainline. Definitely worth the money if you have it.
