Remarks & Notes 
I was tipped off the night before. That the GP7U, RSSX 1337 would lead the train up from Garfield to the Smelter in the morning. Kind of crazy to see a 70 plus year old locomotive still in regular hard service. Most of it's companions are scrapped, in museums, or on tourist railroads. I was also told this was this operators first solo run up the hill. So congratulations to him.
