Tower Tuesday: AY action
Author: santafe199

Back when Argentine’s AY Tower was still fully functional. Not the UP transfer move on the left…

Photo date: October 19, 1979.

Thanks for looking back!

Santa Fe units look real sharp. I don't recall ever seeing a UP caboose with the cupola windows shuttered. Thanks for the post.

It’s a transfer-only caboose. As I recall UP always had a few on hand…
