Here's a challenge for our Moderators (and members) to come up with some pictures of the biggest machines. ------------------ Ship It On The FRISCO! | IAMOKA.com
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. 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... ------------------ Kevin Stevens www.trainweb.org/KernJunction
I love the horns up front, as on the early picture These locomotives are certainly impressive beasts! I would love to catch one on Tehachapi ------------------ Alan The perfect combination - BNSF and N Scale! www.ac-models.com Andersley Western Railroad Alan's American Gallery
