As daylight savings approaches and the days grow shorter, it’s crucial to ensure your business’s signs and lighting are in top condition.

Burned-out or broken lights can send the wrong message to customers, creating an unwelcoming atmosphere or even signaling neglect.

At YESCO, we understand the importance of maintaining a bright, well-lit exterior. Our
expert team is here to help you spot and fix any lighting issues before they impact your business.

Let us take care of your signs and lighting so your business shines brightly, no matter how dark the days get.

Another successful project in the books! We recently partnered with Giltner Transportation in Jerome, Idaho, to install a 40-foot flagpole at their facility. Our team expertly handled the installation and Giltner was thrilled with the outcome.

YESCO announces it will restore the vintage Rio Grande sign for the Heber Valley Railroad. The sign, originally created by YESCO in the late 1950s, once proudly stood atop the Rio Grande Depot in Salt Lake City, Utah, before being replaced approximately five years ago. Now, YESCO is working to refurbish this historic piece, bringing a touch of nostalgia and history to the Heber Valley Railroad. 

The Rio Grande connection to the Heber Valley Railroad is significant, as the branch of track from Provo, Utah, to Heber City, Utah, built in 1899, was originally constructed and operated by the Denver Rio Grande Western Railroad. The Heber Valley Railroad currently operates one of the largest collections of Rio Grande historic standard gauge equipment in the country. As a quasi-state agency, the Heber Valley Railroad is proud to continue preserving the Rio Grande legacy in Utah.  

The restoration project, slated for completion early December, will involve intricate craftsmanship, as YESCO works to restore the sign’s damaged structure and replace outdated neon elements with state-of-the-art LED lights. Once complete, the sign will serve as a symbol of YESCO and the Heber Valley Railroad’s dedication to honoring the legacy of the Rio Grande Railroad and preserving this important piece of local history. The restored sign will be mounted on top of the Heber Valley Railroad’s mechanical shop, located just behind the historic depot, where it will be illuminated on special occasions and stand as a visual tribute to the Rio Grande’s rich history in the region. 

“The Heber Valley Railroad is excited to preserve this piece of Rio Grande history,” said Mark Nelson, executive director, Heber Valley Railroad. “It is a perfect fit to be displayed along with our vintage Rio Grande train rolling stock and locomotives.”

“The YESCO team is working diligently to restore this piece of history to its former glory,” said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO. “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.”
