Remarks & Notes

The Rio Grande transported solid fuel rocket motors for Hercules at Baccus, Utah to military installations via refrigerated containers on 53 ft. flat cars. Car 80003B, part of an A-B articulated set, awaits departure from Roper Yard on Sept. 16, 1987. Rio Grande fans may notice a minor error in the logo design.

A much needed album given that there is no "category" to identify these pictures

Do you ever get the feeling as a model railroader, that you just might be creating something not "prototypical?" Same here.

Things change. Railroads are no different. A collection of images showing the railroads as they used to be.
