Nostalgia & History > Cartier Alco + misc. 1970's western USDate: 09/20/14 21:16 Cartier Alco + misc. 1970's western US Author: halfmoonharold I decided to get all the Biermacher slides out of the cardboard boxes since they were getting warped. By chance, I started with mostly western subjects. The mounts say these are Ektachromes, surprising since the color held up so well over the last 40 years.
1. Quebec Cartier Mining RS18 #65 in Port Cartier, Quebec, on 9/4/74. A Tom Chenoweth slide. 2. D&RGW 3100, Utah 12/74. 3. D&RGW 5311, Utah 12/74. Date: 09/20/14 21:19 Re: Cartier Alco + misc. 1970's western US Author: halfmoonharold 4. SP 8980, Ogden UT 12/74.
5. SSW 9064, Riverside Yard, Ogden UT 12/74. 6. SP 9184, Ogden UT 12/74. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/21/14 00:12 by halfmoonharold.

That UP #450 is an SD7 which is very rare. I think UP only rostered 10 of them.
