Have you ever seen the California Zephyr running in what appears to be a distributed power formation with one P42 on the point and a second on the end? Turns out, in this case, the Zephyr is being taken back to Denver. A major rock slide required it be pulled back to town. The P42 on the left side of the shot is providing HEP and the P42 on the right is pulling the train eastbound around Big Ten Curve.

For a short time during the transition between F40PH's and P42DC's, two P42 and one F40 could often be found on the California Zephyr. The F40 was used for HEP, while the P42's actually pulled the train.
