Don't have the location of these photos but I'm sure some of you out there do. From the Mike Johnson collection, November '78.-BMT

Great shots!!!

These views were taken on Soldier...

Image #1: Two westbounders at Soldier Summit. The light power at right (RG 3116) may have assisted the 5342 West from Helper to the top. Dispatchers often let light helpers head down the hill ahead of helped trains to avoid delay. The pair of geeps may have assisted an eastbounder from Thistle back to the top that same day.

Images #2-3: East meets west just east of the Nolan Tunnels in Price Canyon.
