We all see them, lease units. Share 'em if you shot 'em! I'll kick it off with this old girl that had fallen from glory and into the Helm Lease Fleet - Nashville TN - Late 80's
Not a wreck, but here's KLWX 2273 at Chester, SC in service on the Lancaster & Chester. I think she's former C&O. [04/07/2012]
LMX B39,8E. LMX was a leasing company set up by GE using old trade-ins I think. Here on the BNSF leading a Georgetown RR crushed stone train south of Brenham, Texas .
No wrecks were Motive Power International's SD-45s. Montgomery, AL, April 1990. The 9011 is former SP 9107.
This guy here used to haunt SP trains in the late 80's early 90's. Milwaukee Road "bandit", EMD Lease SD40-2 seen here at Woodford, in the Tehachapi's on a SP east. 1988
Lansford, ND in 2020. A former CN GMD-1 in SRY colors, lessor markings, working for Northern Plains Railroad.
On NS, a train led by a MPI rental, an SP, and a UP. In Georgia... There seems to be a 4th one that could be the NS representative.
Looking at the MKM stenciled under the cab window, I'm thinking SD-40-2 5088 might have been a Morrison-Knudsen leaser or maybe maintained by them? October 1996, Raton NM.
