Some morning rays shine through the clouds to the east. A former Espee AC4400CW brings up the rear of the MRONY through the curves at Coal Creek Canyon and Blue Mountain. This unit (ex-SP 328) was patched to UP 6374 on February 9, 2002. Ironically, it has almost spent twice as much time as UP 6374 (with the yellow patch) than it spent as unpatched SP 328!

If you look in the top left corner of the picture, you can see the east portal of Tunnel 1.
