Windows of Light and Shadow

A pair of SD40T-2s assigned as helper engines, shove on the RVCNU, a unit train of steel pipe through the Red Narrows of Spanish Fork Canyon.

 

The product was made by Napa Pipe in a plant north of San Francisco. Napa also manufactured barges using steel from Kaiser Steel until 1983, then Oregon Steel ran it from 1987 to 2004, sourcing steel from Japan or Korea.
