Sunnyside of the Sub

Rio Grande SD40T-2 No. 5390, one of "Mel's Engines", leads the LJP45 17 local with 42 cars down the Sunnyside Subdivision, 1.7 miles from the main line connection at Mounds, Utah the afternoon of Oct. 17, 2003. At this point in time, the Rio Grande Tunnel Motor "Gang of Four" was down to three original D&RGW numbered units (5390, 5371, and 5349) remaining on the UP roster, hence the UP SD40-2 substitution.
