| Southern Pacific SD40T-2 8552 and four Wisconsin Central SD45's are in charge of one of SP's early taconite trains bound for Geneva Steel near Provo. In 1994,Southern Pacific made an agreement with Geneva Steel that it could deliver Minnesota Iron Ore for a cheaper price than what UP could. As a result,SP won the contract. This was to be short lived however,Just two years later in 1996,The Minnesota Taconite Trains would be back in Union Pacific Hands. |
