UP keeps several SD60s and SD40-2s in La Salle for use on some of the locals that run during the week. One such local is the Fort Collins local that runs Monday through Friday from La Salle to Fort Collins.

This SW1500 was coming up on its 41st birthday in this picture. It started out as SP 2548 and stayed scarlet and gray until shortly after the UP/SP merge. It moved to UP 1132 on February 18, 1997 and stayed that way until it was retired on February 24, 2009. Here, it is being transported to North Platte, NE. From there, it will move to Fort Worth, TX where it will be turned over to Econo-Rail.

A trio of elephant-style AC units lead the northbound North Yard, CO to North Platte, NE manifest. After making a brief stop in La Salle to switch out some cars, the train is now on the roll again.

Greeley (UP) Ski Train
In La Salle, we find all things that were once Rio Grande. Okay, technically the Tempo Ski Train cars weren't apart of Rio Grande, but we'll let that technicality slide!

Seeing as how the Ski Train is being transported to Canada to become a part of Algoma Central Railway, this shot underneath the quickly-flying American Flag seemed somewhat appropriate!

While waiting for the Ski Train in La Salle, I thought this shot of a patched Rio Grande GP40 and a "triclops" UP SD60M made for a nice shot!
