A long time ago, locomotives like these were a common sight. Many had a very fine paint job. It was time to show off that we have a fancy new toy and we want to show it off.
This is a Union Pacific RR Locomotive #76. It's currently on a turntable, either leaving or entering this roundhouse. For those that don't know, a roundhouse is a large donut shaped building where they repair locomotives. Everything wears out, and this is usually where they fix them. The center has a turntable, which rotates to the track the engine is on. Then they can join with any of the other tracks near by.
