Rio Grande Locomotives.


This photo doesn't belong to me, but it's a good one never the less. It was photographed by Terry Thero of Colorado Springs, shows three DRGW SD50 locomotives on a southbound coal train near Sedalia.


DRGW3002 was a GP30, a classic locomotive in the minds of many railfans. I caught it here on the final day of regular freight operations at Minturn, Colorado in August of 1997. DRGW3002 was retired from regular service in 1999 and stored at UP's North Little Rock facility for some time after. It was recently sold as of this writing.
