My favorite Rio Grande tunnel motor growing up was DRGW 5378. Unfortunately, it was one of 16 tunnel motors to be repainted in the Espee speed letter scheme. Here, SP 5378 sits near the yard office (along with SP 5412 and DRGW 5346) in North Yard.

SP 5397, once DRGW 5397 until being repainted in 1995, sits in North Yard as the sun sets to the west. DRGW 5503 is visible in the background.

Just days before being retired, DRGW 3102 sits in North Yard with badly faded stripes on its nose.

SW1000 #142 was the main switcher in North Yard for as long as I can remember. On this afternoon, it is switching some autoracks out on the yard ladder.

One of the first train pictures that I can remember taking was when I was eight years old. This is Rio Grande's North Yard in Denver. A pair of GP30's lead a string of other power near the yard office.
