One more roster shot of DRGW 3006 in glorious evening sunlight! This would be the last shot of 3006 in direct sunlight I would get.

The cab of the GP30 is without a doubt one of my favorites of all time. The round shape gave it such a distinctive look. So thrilled that DRGW 3006 will be preserved at the Forney Museum rather than be scrapped. That means two Rio Grande GP30s have been saved. The other being DRGW 3011 which is now at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden.

Graffiti litters the conductor's side of DRGW 3006 as the GP30 backs around the Denargo Wye. Soon, the unit will enter in to the Forney Museum and out of the sunlight, possibly for good. But, thank goodness, it will be preserved!

The setting sun reflects off the long hood of DRGW 3006 as it backs around the Denargo Wye from BNSF's 31st Street Yard over to UP's 36th Street Yard.

The light is getting very low as this steam crane is backed around the Denargo Wye, moving toward UP's 36th Street Yard.
