Remarks & Notes |
UP7183 claws at the severe grade in Price River Canyon. A unit train of coal with 7 total locomotives (2x3x2) makes an impressive sight, filling the senses as it blasts skyward towards Solider Summit. The ruling grade is 2.4%, making this one of the steepest sections of mainline railroad in the United States of America. |
