Westbound at AG Tower
Author: WichitaJct

An SD40 and a GE lead a WB at AG Tower (Augusta, Ks.) 27 August 1977 by Allan Ramsey. The roof of the tower can be seen over the GE.

Thanks for the photo.  Poor 5011 had just seven months to live at that point - it was destroyed when its train plunged into a sinkhole on Cajon Pass in March 1978.

FYI, the GE is a U36C.  Nice shot, thanks for posting.
