[boccarp]

when did they take it out?

[Nathanrailfan]

@boccarp When UP bought out the DRGW. About the same time UP bought out SP.

@Nathanrailfan Actually the Rio Grande bought the SP and than the UP bought both of them.

@criind I remember reading that although Rio Grande bought SP,they BECAME SP.There never was a repainting of SP locos into Rio Grande sceme.Little fish eats big fish.Little fish becomes big fish.

@boccarp It's not taking out, just out of service. Under Siege 2 was filmed on this pass 1995.
