BN 2163 |
| Description: |
The early days of Utah Railway being BNSF's local switching agent was quite the expirience for local train enthusiasts. Utah Railway used old ''Rent-A-Wrecks''in the beginning to perform these duties in those early days of the late 1990's. Such was the case on November 17,1997 when Utah Railway's Provo Switcher was using two old vintage Burlington Northern Geeps to perform switching duties at the Provo Yard. |
