UP 8742
Title:  UP 8742
Description:  While moving through SP Junction with a California-bound intermodal, UP 8742 SD70ACe suffered two seized traction motors and was dragged to CZ Yard to await repair. Electro-Motive built this locomotive for Union Pacific at the Bombardier Sahagun, MX plant and delivered to UP in May 2012. On October 24, 2015, around 3:30AM UP 8742 was trailing UP 8337 on a cement train when it was derailed by flood waters. Both locomotives ended up on their sides along with 25 loaded hoppers partially submerged. Seems this diesel hasn't had much luck lately.

SP 4609
Title:  SP 4609
Description:  SP 4609 is looking a bit down after a derailment and is waiting for repairs. This caboose was part of a fifty car order (SP 4600-4649) C-50-7 built by Pacific Car & Foundry in 1978. When delivered this car wore the standard Espee dress of mineral red and orange. In 2015, this car was given a hybrid yellow and red scheme making it one of a kind and is based in East Texas functioning as a caboose (not shoving platform). Note the lights have been removed from the rooftop bracket.

The GP62 is a standard GP60 with a re-positioned control stand to allow for easier long hood forward operation. Some SD60s are having the same modifications performed and are now called SD62s.

Description:  Two former Burlington Northern/BNSF SD40-2s (HLCX 8070 and HLCX 8072) wrestle a long DGNO transfer bound for UP Miller Yard. I know it's bad for air quality but I like a hard working locomotive under a cloud of heavy exhaust.
