RIO GRANDE SD40T-2's 5350/5394/5380/5373. |
| Description: |
Four Rio Grande Tunnel Motors shove a loaded coal export train into the UP Provo Yard.This train was loaded at the Savage Mine near Price and is bound for Los Angeles,CA. Three of the Rio Grande Tunnel Motors 5350,5394,5380 have been repainted into Southern Pacific colors and still retain their Rio Grande numbers. While 5373 is still in Rio Grande colors as shown in my previous shot. All four have since either been retired,scrapped or even sold off to smaller local carriers. |

After switching power and crews,This train will soon be on it's way to Lynndyl and the connection with the former LA&SL Mainline to an awaiting ship for export to the Orient.

SP was too cheap to renumber the locomotive. |
