The tarp is nearly half off. Three Aspen Gold stripes start benath the cab and move back toward the long hood. Looks like a mountain scheme showing up behind the cab.

If we were to compare the front of the Rio Grande Heritage Unit to the front of an F7A, I wonder how close the Aspen Gold would match!?

Forgive the fence rising up into the picture, but there was (unfortunately) no way around it. Aspen Gold covers the front of UP 1989, although it is interesting to note that the ditch lights are black!

While moving this SD40-2 back to the service tracks next to the engine house, the engineer throttles up. The result is quite a bit of exhaust being produced by the 16-cylinder, 645E prime mover!

Got trains? Two northbound coals empties are tied down on Main Two and Main Three. A third coal empty slows to a stop at the intermediate signal at Evans to tied down as well. Meanwhile, a southbound coal load passes by on Main One, and an RTD Light Rail train makes a stop at the Evans Street Station.
