Departing Temple Town

Doug Harrop Photography • September 1, 1984

 

Union Pacific DDA40X No. 6910 leads the WPV west through Grant Tower in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

This landscape couldn't be more different today. CF&I's steel fabrication plant is long gone, replaced with high density apartments. The track alignment through Grant Tower was revamped in 2007 to expedite train movements through the Quiet Zone. The Union Pacific train depot is blocked by the retail and residential buildings of the "Gateway" development.
