Remarks & Notes

Milwaukee Road 3030 West approaches the big tunnel under the Bitterroot Mountains. The railroad later renumbered the lead EMD to 160. Apparently this freight was light enough to forego a lead Little Joe helper. Note the speeder in the siding.

The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
