I really did not get a good look at this until it posted. Poor guy has two dents in the nose and seems to have something jammed under the rear truck. Remember Rio Grande seems to be the only RR that bought into EMD's 'more power is gooder' theory. If they were not climbing a mountian they were winding down a river valley. With all the thru freight from connections power was always needed somewhere other than were it was.
