Just east of Bond at State Bridge, the Rocky Mountaineer is continuing its trek east along the Colorado River. The Rocky Mountaineer leased a pair of SD70Ms from Union Pacific for power on the train in 2021. As you can clearly see, a wrap (of slightly mismatched yellow) was applied to both units to allow them to represent the Rocky Mountaineer. It sounds as though two Rocky Mountaineer units (based in Canada) are having PTC installed and will be on the train in 2022!
