    U30B 858

    Here is a photo showing the rear of Frisco 858 pooled on the UP in Seattle, WA 3-31-78.

    It was an all General Electric (GE) U30 lashup. A UP U30C and 2 SLSF U30Bs.

    I have to say the rear of the U30B looks pretty blank without number boards!

    Wonder how they were identified at night when meeting other trains if one led running rear end first?

    When I see a photo like this I realize my models could stand some more weathering.
