The Denver & Rio Grande Western’s depot sign in Salt Lake City is being restored and will soon go on display at the Heber Valley Railroad, Railfan & Railroad Magazine reports.

YESCO (Salt lake City) announced on Oct. 15 that it is restoring the historic neon sign, which it originally created in the 1950s and which sat atop the station until just a few years ago. The restoration process will refurbish neon with LED, to be lit for special occasions, and is expected to be finished by December.

“The YESCO team is working diligently to restore this piece of history to its former glory,” Jeff Young, YESCO executive vice president, is quoted. “We hope the restored sign will serve as a reminder of the enduring impact the Rio Grande Railroad had on the development of this region.”
