Here is train 349 from today that has 4 GE units, all running elephant style! In addition to 3 different models, we have 3 different roads as well: Harold
The Amtrak locomotive failed and the UP unit was added from a freight to keep Amtrak train 92 moving. Chris Toth
Yes, the Amtrak picked up a freight loco due to engine failure. In talking to one of the passengers, apparently they also had to de-train at one point too. I have always heard about odd power on Amtrak trains, but this was my first catch! Harold
Here's today's train 349: An interesting catch! Lead by a CSX SD70AC, also in the consist is an SD70 (in Horsehead scheme), a Dash 9, an unpainted Dash 9, a couple of UP units, and another Dash 9. Harold
Sorry, it is not the best picture, but it was starting to rain and the train was really movin'! Harold
Great pics, Harold - loved that Amtrak shot - SD90 no less!! You can tell UP was anxious to get that train out of their way!
I think the UP unit was picked up from CSX in South Carolina! (Lots of them roaming around down here..) Harold
