Remarks & Notes |
The eastbound dirt train is working up the 1.70 % grade into Sunnyside. This line was origianlly built by the Carbon County Railway in 1899. In 2002 the line was used to run trash and dirty dirt up to a mine for burial. 4 Rio Grande units did the work on this dirt train between Helper and Sunnyside this day. Helper, UT was well known for its large group of DRGW units based out of there well into the UP empire. |
