ARR 3012 is seen heading north on the evening of August 9, 2019. First spotted on the east leg of the Portage wye, the 3012 was also spotted on the north side of 20 Mile River heading north to Anchorage 
For comparative purposes, ARR 2804 is seen leading a northbound freight, at about the same locations, at the same time of day, in July 1986.  
Note the Bi-Centennial FP units, and ARR 1505, an A-B-A worktrain dead in tow, heading back to town
