However, the train made a stop in Greeley to check out 844 and make sure everything was running correctly. That stop allowed us to hop ahead of the train and setup for this shot of the train coming down the main in La Salle. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

It'll never replace such units as the SD40-2 or even the SD70M, but it not too shabby! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Although you can't tell from the pictures alone, these two units are the same two I shot at dawn at Henderson. Apparently, the power was serviced quickly and kicked right back out of town!

This is one of only three remaining GP40P-2's! Three of these units were delivered to Southern Pacific for use in the San Francisco area. The extended section at the back contained a steam generator. Of course, that equipment has long since been removed, but the unusual body still exists. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The lighting was really good and UP 844 is putting off enough smoke to make it look nice and classy! The train is just south of downtown La Salle.

Photo ID: 102955 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, May 24, 2009 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed MP 47 La Salle, CO 2305 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Greeley (UP) Union Pacific, Rio Grande This is definitely the kind of shot that needs to be in black and white. My dad managed to get roster shots of nearly ever Rio Grande unit back in the late 1970's and early 1980's. He always shot in black and white, so even with the UP patch, this reminds me of those shots. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
