UP 6937 |
| Description: |
COLORES WY Oct 19 1977 -- DDA40X 1937 leads a mixed freight on Sherman Hill. The overpass looks like it was once over a railroad but I can find no indication of such in books or on satellite views. Anyone out there have an opinion? This was the last photo on a roll so I missed the best shot. Darn motor drive and my lack of attention. |
