CN 5463
Title:  CN 5463
Description:  Although wearing a light dusting of dirt, this CN SD60 looks like a recent arrival from EMD but is actually a 27 year old secondhand locomotive. Delivered to Oakway Leasing in November 1986 as OWY 9025, this locomotive worked for Burlington Northern on a long term lease wearing Electro Motive Demonstrator blue and white. It is quite possible this locomotive polished these rails while working under the Burlington Northern/BNSF flag.

UP 1937
Title:  UP 1937
Description:  A former Cotton Belt GP60 shows off fresh UP paint and sleet covered walkways. This locomotive will soon trade the 1900 series number for a 1000. Note the grey tube curving around the cab windows and towards the bottom of the cab. I believe this is a condensation drain pipe from the air conditioner.

GMTX 2309
Title:  GMTX 2309
Description:  Drained, dead, and covered in sleet, a GATX Leasing Geep in Union Pacific colors stands in Davidson Yard awaiting a visit from the diesel mechanic. Ordered by Rock Island and delivered to Chicago & Northwestern as GP38-2 4609 in November 1979 in full CNW colors. After departing the UP roster this locomotive was picked up by GATX and rebuilt for long term lease to Union Pacific as 379 in full UP colors. After UP removed all leased power off the roster this locomotive rejoined the GATX fleet as GMTX 2309 but still in UP colors in July 2013. EMD delivered this Geep to CNW without dynamic braking but was added during rebuilding for Union Pacific. This locomotive is new to the database.

TRWX 120
Title:  TRWX 120
Description:  Although hard to see in the photograph, this locomotive has LED light strips along the frame and around the engineroom doors for TRE's Winter Whistler Express. Due to poor weather conditions however the holiday train was anulled and instead operated as TRE 2973, the 4:50PM train to Fort Worth. As this train started to move a late arriving passenger ran for the train and slipped on ice falling on the station platform. The engineer stopped the train and the passenger dusted himself off, boarded, and the train continued to Fort Worth with battered and bruised passenger.

Title:  UP 3105
Description:  Looking like it just left the EMD paint booth at LaGrange, IL, this operating SD40-2 is headed for display at the Los Angeles County Fairgrounds in Pomona, CA. This locomotive has been donated by Union Pacific in exchange for Big Boy 4014 which is to be returned to active service. Something about an SD40-2 in a museum makes me feel old. This photo will appear in the April 2014 issue of Trains magazine.

Description:  Three SD70Ms lead an SD40-2 and a mixed freight west towards Davidson Yard. The bright yellow SD40-2 trailing is Union Pacific 3105, the locomotive UP traded for Big Boy 4014. An SD40-2 finally makes it to a museum and a Big Boy will be operating once again in the next few years, everyone wins!
