A truly awesome photo, John. 5 units distant, a very long train, then a bright red nose staring back at you!

Good stuff John. As shown, the rear SSW SD45T-2R helper was barely a year old (after Sac Shops GRIP II rebuild) and seeing second and third order GP60's (SSW) were just coming on line at the date of your photo, you can see the head-end power consisted of all older EMD units and one 2-3 year old B39-8E/B40-8 trailing fifth.
