Remarks & Notes

Rio Grande's Helper Local makes a switch move on the former Provo Canyon Branch lead at 6th South and 2nd West in Provo. Pretend for a minute that the 'Heber Creeper' route from Provo Yard was never abandoned and continued to be served by the D&RGW into the late 1980s. Six axle power would be a bit much for the curves and pile trestles in Provo Canyon, but hey, its only a dream, so dream BIG.
