A Cotton Belt B40-8 leads the CHOAF (Chicago - Oakland) downhill at Detour. Originally the route up the west side of Soldier Summit was a 4% grade that closely followed the current grade of US Highway 6. A new double track line with a 2% grade was constructed in 1913 betweeen Detour and the Summit. |

| Description: |
Four axle GEs were always a nice change from the usual six axle units on Soldier Summit. A Cotten Belt B40-8 is eastbound at Castle Gate. Castle Gate was the result of a thin wall of rock cut by the Price River leaving a watchtower-like sculpture. |
