The Utah Railway owns the only six MK50-3’s built, and these together with five ex-Australian SD50S’s drag 15,000 ton coal trains up the 2.4% grade to Soldier Summit using all of the units roaring 38,500 horsepower creating an unforgettable spectacle. The line over Soldier Summit belongs to Union Pacific, and UP trains and BNSF trains on trackage rights, as well as the Utah Railway use the line. See these unusual locomotives run from Helper, Utah to Soldier Summit.

The Utah Railway sounds as good as it looks, and an eclectic locomotive roster and Soldier Summit as a backdrop make this a nice addition to any railfan video library. Highball’s videography is second-to-none, and the sound of heavy trains straining on the grade will keep you on the edge of your seat. Nicely done, Highball!

Enjoyed the constant train movements and the variety of locations shown. A bit of history with regards to former sidings, industries, and motive power for the Utah Railway. It can get a little boring as almost all of the trains are coal movements. But I liked it all the same.

If you don’t like coal trains, this could get a bit old after awhile, but the engines are unique and it takes a lot of them to get up this hill. The video work is very well done here and shows both the trains and the scenery.
