Photo ID: 100413 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, April 19, 2005 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Leyden Arvada, CO 2439 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) Southern Pacific I NEVER thought I would again see the day when SEVEN geeps could be found on the point of a train. It happen on this day though, when the Rocky Local was powered by three Espee GP40(M)-2s, three Grande GP40-2's, and a UP GP39-2. Black and white just seemed right for this picture, as it looks like it could have come straight out of the early 1980's!!!
