Remarks & Notes

During a pause in the heavy snowfall, a mid-train helper blasts out of tunnel 9 as it assists in lifting a heavy SP drag up and around the Loop. The train, which originated in the Pacific Northwest, is headed for the new yard at West Colton, CA.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
