Coil Steel Train

Doug Harrop Photography • March 24, 1978

 

A Union Pacific unit train of coil steel from Geneva Works has crested the 4,812 ft. summit at Mount (Point of the Mountain) south of Draper, Utah. Twin Peaks and Lone Peak of the Wasatch Range loom above the train, on the east side of the hazy Salt Lake Valley.

 

Leading the charge is one of UP's 37 SD45s equipped with Locotrol (RCS), a technology used for radio remote control operations.
