Remarks & Notes |
Union Pacific's YRO51R switcher works a lumber yard spur in Utah's city of South Salt Lake. CA-11 caboose #25821 still serves it's original owner faithfully as a shoving platform for this urban remote control switch job. It was built for the UP in May of 1979 back when most every train in the USA had a crew and a caboose at the rear of a freight train. A special thanks to Dave Blaze for his knowledge and expertise in photographing this RCL switcher. |
