Remarks & Notes

Count them: One, Two, Three, Four, FIVE SD45s!!! Here's the only time I ever saw a Rio Grande train with five big SD45s for power. This hotshot westbound is heading through Provo Yard moments before sundown on June 9, 1977. The train gods were watching over me big time on this particular day.

An exclamation attributed to TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson, it is this eponymous expression of which certain images convey man and machine versus nature . . .
