Southern Pacific SD45T-2 No.9351 in the Kodachrome Scheme of the ill fated Southern Pacific/Santa Fe Merger of the 1980's,Acts as the third locomotive on the Oakland-Norflok Southern Forwarder. One has to assume that both railroads were pretty hopeful that the merger would fall through to paint each others engines so quickly. |

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. |

| Description: |
Rio Grande Tunnel Motor No.5350 shoves Southern Pacific's SVLHC (Savage Mine-Los Angeles Harbor Coal),Into the Union Pacific Yard at Provo. 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. Can't help but notice the date on the cowcatcher,I had a camera that dated the picture it was taken,Oh well it's still Rio Grande even if painted in Southern Pacific Colors. SP was too cheap to renumber the locomotive. |
