Rio Grande on the Sunset Route

After landing at LAX a few hours earlier, we set out to find a duo of UP heritages on the Sunset Route. We found the train at Palm Springs and followed it west. SD70ACe No. 1989 painted in the Rio Grande heritage scheme, leads a Tucson to West Colton manifest up the 1.99% grade west of Cabazon, CA. Trailing second, is UP SD70ACe No. 1983 painted in the Western Pacific heritage scheme.
