St. John Local

Union Pacific's LUC55 local departs Salt Lake City through Grant Tower the afternoon of Dec. 27, 1992. The train is powered by "Operation Red Block" SD40-2 No. 3626 and GP15-1 No. 1555 pulling 83 cars. Today, the right of way on the left is lined with hundreds of luxury apartments and the track itself has been realigned with gentler curves to increase train speed.
