SP rear end help on MEKFM, near Hilt, California; April 7, 1989__
Special Duty Semaphore on the Siskiyou on Sunday. The manned rear end helper of an SD T-Motor and a Rio-Grande SD45 pass the Type-B blades that were once common along the Siskiyou line. Up front are three more T-Motors and a Rio Grande GP40, then a manned mid-train help is a trio of Tunnel Motors and two SD45s. In between all this power was about 90 box cars and flat cars loaded with Oregon produced lumber. Long before the DPU of today.
