Remarks & Notes 
In 1985 Utah Railway acquired their own power again. The first units they got were these four former Burlington Northern F45's 6606, 6607, 6613, and 6608. The four unit set that my dad captured here is very rare. Not long after they got them, one suffered a mechanical failure that it was decided that it would become a parts source. The four green machines are seen here crossing the Gordon Creek Trestle. They are heading in with an empty coal train, to load at the Hiawatha loadout. (Tom Ellis photo)
