C&S SD9's & Katy F's in Colorado 1970
Author: valmont

C&S SD9 #839 leading 3 Katy F's and another SD9 toward Longmont, CO on Nov. 11, 1970. This would have been sugar beet harvest season then, which meant in influx of foreign power to help out, such as these Katy F's.

Don't know that I can tell if there are any beet hoppers on this one though ... there is a short string of look-alike cars in the train but a zoom didn't make it much easier to tell

I'm thinking possibly north of Highway 66 and the curve that leads to Highland...?
