OK,here are a few photos from my website of a couple of UP DDA40X's:
First is #6946, at the Feather River Rail Society Museum at Portola, CA. The photo was taken in 1986. http://www.trainweb.org/KernJunction/sidetrips/08008602.jpg

The last two photos are of the lone DDA40X on UP's roster, #6936. The photos are of a company special which operated over Tehachapi Pass on April 15, 1999. The first photo was taken on the Tehacahapi Loop, and the second was taken at Kern Junction in Bakersfield, CA. Hope you enjoy them...

I love the horns up front, as on the early picture http://www.trainboard.com/smile.gif These locomotives are certainly impressive beasts! I would love to catch one on Tehachapi http://www.trainboard.com/smile.gif

<font color="336633">DD40AX's are very impresive, but still not as good as the ol' big blows, i really wish one of them had been saved http://www.trainboard.com/frown.gif</font>
