Rock Island U-25B 208  Contributor's Pick!       
Rock Island U25B 208 is the last of four RI units (the other three being GP40s, 383, 377, 4702) in a train off the Tucumcari line at El Paso on 3 March 1973. While it was not unheard of for them to continue west towards Tucson, without dynamic brakes they were not terribly popular with most crew.
