Doug Harrop Photography • August 17, 1984
Mr. Harrop was a huge fan of UP's DDA40X "Centennial" locomotives. When 25 of them were removed from storage early in 1984, he prioritized photographing them as much as possible.
UP 6910 passed his home in Mountain Green on Aug. 17, 1984, and he gave chase. While the weather was dark and gray, he knew the double diesels wouldn't be around forever. This fine photo was taken in Echo Canyon under threatening skies.
History is grateful Doug was there to record the final months of service. 6910 was retired by UP on May 29, 1985, and scrapped at St. Louis Auto Shredding.
