A shot that is all but guaranteed never to be repeated again. The last-remaining (unpatched) Rio Grande unit on UP's roster crosses over the bridge (still lettered for Rio Grande) at York Street on the Belt Industrial Lead. 5371 is headed toward Cheyenne, more than likely to be retired.

Very cool shot! Sad to see all The Grande power disappearing.
