Tony Fernandez	General	Craig, do you know if the GP30 was added as a "Cajon helper" that would be cutoff at Yermo or perhaps Las Vegas? I'm assuming that the DD35A/DD35/GP9B would've been the road power since those models were the heavy power over Cajon Pass and Cima Hill during the early `70s. Really nice shot of a bygone era.	3/20/2012 8:02:42 PM

Tony Fernandez	General	Just re-read your picture's caption and noted it was a "westbound"; so maybe the GP30 was tacked on at Yermo to add its dynamic braking for the trip down Cajon?	3/20/2012 8:14:26 PM

gordon vincent	General	This consist was put together either in Las Vegas or SLC.UP ran all kinds of lashups cross country.	9/17/2012 1:17:57 PM
