6 cruising past the Castle Gate with 2 new chargers in tow
Author: Paniolo_man

I managed to got a good video of today's (Saturday) #6 heading into Helper with new power in tow.

No SSL on this one.

It does make me sad that UDOT blew up half of the Castle Gate formation to expand the highway in the 60s.

Nice catch! 

Not even a replacement car for the Superliner Sightseer. Not sure how Amtrak is handling that one!

The last car 31034, was one of the California leased cars.

The two Chargers are not running. They're being delivered from their builder.

Nice catch of the new Chargers. And I whole-heartedly agree, the state never should have been allowed to destroy such a unique (and rather cool looking) geological feature!
