West Green River Dispatcher |
Description: |
Dispatcher George Hunter contemplates the railroad between Green River and Granger, WY with fountain pen at the ready for OSs. The smaller panel on the left controlled Strawberry to Ogden. The 4th Sub of the Wyoming Division had some 46 miles of CTC and 126 miles of ABS double-track territory. One of the speakers was for the radio and operators; the other for the Curvo annunciator - an open mike near Wahsatch where eastbounds would roar past, thus giving the DS an idea where his train(s) were between Echo and Altamont. |

3985 reborn |
Description: |
UP Challenger 3985 was on static display at Cheyenne, WY for many years. Then some employees got the notion it might run again. Here, in September of 1979, a burro crane has laid panels to the Challenger, the fence has been removed and geep 327 shepherds the locomotive, with prodigious oiling of valve and driving gear, west to Tower "A" for a reverse move back towards the roundhouse where the capable steam crew will embark upon the process of readying the sleek beauty for many years of excursion service. |

The California Livestock |
Description: |
Hot on the heels of the westbound van trains came the CLS with its head end block of hogs - business which lasted until the mid-nineties. The train would be stopping out west of Rawlins to pick up additional hog traffic that came up off the Greeley Sub and was set-out online for the CLS later in the evening. There are a couple fast forties augmenting the imposing DD-40AX and the train will really roll across the high plains. |

Anomaly at Borie |
Description: |
It is unusual to see a westbound general manifest using the steeper alignment over Sherman Hill via Borie. Most of them use No.3 track via Speer and Harriman with its 0.8% gradient. Every once in awhile ,however, a westbound will have ample power (>2hp/t) and a light enough consist to use the steeper but shorter route over the top at Sherman, as is the case with this fellow at Borie amidst the typically bleak landscape of wintertime. |
