Nostalgia & History > SP SD70's in the shadow of Mt EddyDate: 11/26/12 18:43 SP SD70's in the shadow of Mt Eddy Author: photobob SP 9803 East, but it could have been North, right after the UP takeover when I took this shot. In the consist are two ex-SP SW1500's already painted in their new owners colors. The SW1500's were 1179 & 1166 and the other SD70 was 9819. I didn't get the number of the trailing SD40T-2. Mt Eddy is located on the other side of I-5 from Mt Shasta and has an elevation of 9,025feet. The little spot of green in front of 9819 is now a couple of large pine tree's pretty well screwing this shot up.

What's the gradient? Date: 11/26/12 23:53 Re: SP SD70's in the shadow of Mt Eddy Author: Fizzboy7 Tough to look at with the yellow mixed in. Going to guess this was 1997 or 1998...
