DRGW 3011,EARLY SPRING 1994.
Title:  DRGW 3011,EARLY SPRING 1994.
Description:  Back in the early to mid 1990's well into the Southern Pacific era,It was still possible to catch pure sets of Rio Grande power on Southern Pacific trains,Especially on local trains between Provo and Salt Lake City. Here at Provo's Backman's Crossing,Southern Pacific's ROGJM (Roper Yard-Grand Junction,CO Manifest),rolls east. The track in the foreground is Union Pacific's original Provo-Salt Lake City Mainline,Torn out in 2008 to make way for U.T.A's front runner project. Part two of this train will feature Rio Grande 3140 and 3096. I scanned this one and my upcoming second shot from kodachrome slides.

Description:  Southbound, about to cross Denise Rd. Both Denise and Britton Roads were protected by crossbucks only and the crews had more or less permanent "stop & flag" instructions because of the reduced sight lines. The family on the left (red fence) grew corn every year. Still a month or two from planting time.

Description:  Southbound, approaching Dock Junction. The docks have been closed for a couple of years, but the tracks are still in place. From right to left - the lead to the docks, a siding off the dock lead, the main, and another siding. Bennington Drive is out of sight to the left. The dock lead bridge over the NYC is out of sight behind me on the right.

Description:  Southbound with Dewey Ave. the next crossing (about a mile away). Note the Dock Junction BR&P era concrete phone booth. The stone appears to be dropped for the RG&E crews (new power poles on the right). The B&O's ballast was mostly cinders and certainly wasn't kept up after the docks closed.
