Remarks & Notes

On a cold and windy Saturday an ARR work train pauses along the shore of Turnagain Arm to dump some rip rap. The three GP40-2s provide a history of the ARR in paint - from the austere black and gold of the mid 1970s Federal days to the bold blue and yellow of 1980s and State ownership to the sophisticated scheme of today debuted in the 1990s on the SD70MACs and now the ARR's standard.

Coal and steel don't go bad. This album features long, slow, heavy freight trains; drag freights, slop freights, dead freights, etc. Trains with lots of power, and lots of different cargo slogging along behind.
