Excellent shot of a nicely painted Engine. :D

Very nice. It's a pleasure seeing some of the more obscure lines with their unique paint jobs.

Thanks for posting.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Jon.

Wisconsin & Southern (WSOR) SD40-2 (They paint all the UP's weird schemes (Hertige units, Olympic units, and G. W. Bush unit))

Nice shot. I have only seen these in print before. Where did you you shoot it?

Cool engine! rckaine said it was a SD-40-2? Gotta love those huge decks. Good for sitting around waiting for the slow passenger train to pass.

Thanks for the comments guys!

This shot was taken in the midsouth. It was carrying a large load of rocks to be put on a new secondary track. Seen in the picture, the single engine is waiting for the other engine and a load of gravel to get back on the side track. Fun to watch these guys man their 4,000hp machines.

Just goes to show you don't need $1,000's of equipment to take nice shots (but don't tell my wife!) ;)

Here is another of WSOR's engines. A GP38-2 switches a grain elevator southwest of Oshkosh, WI.
