UNION PACIFIC ENGINEERING SPECIAL WITH CENTENNIAL DDA40X.
Title:  UNION PACIFIC ENGINEERING SPECIAL WITH CENTENNIAL DDA40X.
Description:  Union Pacific's engineering special passing through Provo on former Rio Grande rails. Apparently,Mother Nature has dictated that UP 6936 would pass through Provo on gloomy morning after monsoon thunderstorms have passed through,One must keep in mind that just 20 years ago it was inconcievable that one of UP's biggest locomotives in the world would graze the rails of the former Rio Grande Mainline. UP 1989 keeps the memory of the Rio Grande alive (Sort Of). As one writer and photographer put it,''A way to make lemonade out of lemons on a gloomy,cloudy day''.
