NOT St. Marys Railroad but San Manuel Arizona Railroad near Tucson, AZ.

Wrong RR name. This is the San Manuel Arizona RR, copper hauling line. Taken by my brother. I was there as well.

San Manuel Arizona GP38-2s 16 and 17, EMD serials 74631-1 and 74631-2, built 10/74 so brand new in this photo.  They were later repainted to a sort of Santa Fe-like blue and yellow scheme: https://www.rr-fallenflags.org/misc-s/smar-sanshp-ava.jpg

They used to be stored in San Manuel. Not sure if they are still there.
