You gotta love that in 2009, you can still get a Rio Grande lettered engine crossing over a Rio Grande lettered bridge! UP 1989 is a mid-train swing helper on an eastbound coal load crossing over Indiana Street.

Thanks Steve! As always, you are too kind. Although I do share your sentiments regarding UP 1989 hanging out on the Moffat.

Oh, you gotta love that shot! May you get many more opportunities to catch this unit here on the head end of the train. Still, for the circumstances, this is a "best-of" picture. Frame and mount it!
