Rio Grande Work Train
Author: lizzard45

I saw this work train tied down in the Ironton yards, just south of Provo. Looks like the Grande is going to do some serious track work this summer.

Very cool!  I love a good work train.  Set out blue flag protection and let's get to work!

I'd love to model a 1970's D&RGW work train, but most of the cars shown in Rio Grande Color Guide were ex-troop transport cars so it will take some doing to locate some of those Walthers OOP cars and do it up right!  Jim Eagers Color Guide also shows a work car made from a flat car with a contractor trailer mounted to it, another interesting project!

Cheers, Jim Fitch.
