SSP GP39-2 #3901 with five loaded centerbeams from the Washington, Idaho & Montana Railway climbs out of Palouse, WA as it approaches Palouse River Cut, which is exactly what it sounds like; a rock cut that the SS&P traverses through parallel to the Palouse River. The real “cut” is behind us in this image, earlier in the day I was able to catch them bringing empties through the cut LHF.
My photos of the SSP, the combination of the unique landscape of the rolling hills of Eastern Washington, and incredibly uncommon Kennecott Mining spec'd GP39-2's truly make this railroad one of a kind
