Rock Island U25B 202 |
Description: |
Rock Island U25B 202 was just ten years old when this picture was taken on the SP at El Paso in 1973, but it looks like its seen a lot of miles and some spot maintenance along the way; witness the faded hood with single red replacement panal, original number application on the battery box, freshly painted cab area and nose and oil stains by the exhaust. |

Rock Island U-25B 208 |
Description: |
Rock Island U25B 208 is the last of four RI units (the other three being GP40s, 383, 377, 4702) in a train off the Tucumcari line at El Paso on 3 March 1973. While it was not unheard of for them to continue west towards Tucson, without dynamic brakes they were not terribly popular with most crew. |
