Steam & Excursion > UP 830 Location?Date: 12/18/14 13:29 UP 830 Location? Author: donstrack Here is a photo by Dave England, but he does not recall the date or location. The photo print has "Sep" on the border, but no year.
My own guess is Laramie because of the stone building in the background. Don Strack Date: 12/18/14 13:34 Re: UP 830 Location? Author: Realist donstrack Wrote:

There are several more in Dave's collection, now that I look for others at Grand Island, in almost the exact same spot.

But it and others got tenders from FEF-2's and -3's, and the FEF-1 tenders were then converted into fuel tenders for the GTELs. Date: 12/18/14 18:02 Re: UP 830 Location?
