Re-Iced And Ready To Depart         
Union Pacific 4003 drags a train out of the ice racks in Laramie. The ice racks were used to re-ice reefers eastbound loaded with perishables. At the time of this 1958 photo, these icing facilities were listed as the largest of their kind on the UP. Obtained from Union Pacific Steam: Big Boy Portraits (Bush, Ehernberger)
