I've photographed a GCFX unit at Osborn Yard in Louisville,KY before. And if this is the thread for Rent-A-Wreck photos: Blue HCLX unit at Osborn CEFX unit on NS's CNO&TP in Danville Green HCLX unit at Osborn. I've seen a few FURX units in the ex Burlington Northern livery before.
Ok,two more small images really quick,they're screencaps from videos of mine. Here's the aforementioned FURX unit. This is the other HCLX scheme I've seen.
GCFX SD40 3061, Manchester, GA HLCX SD40-2 8163, same town as above. A trio of GP38-2s (third is rebuilt from GP40), all rent-a-wrecks. Ray Yard, Denison, TX
I thought so, too........but there ya go. That's the cool part about rent-a-wreck leasers. However, the coolest thing about this motive power consist to me was the third unit- a GP40 rebuilt to GP38 specs (deturboed, derated to 2000HP, one of the radiator fans removed off the top). Unfortunately, I don't have a better pic of that unit, sorry.....
Doesn't look like a rent-a-wreck, but it IS one- the CEFX initials are barely visible on the nose of an otherwise clean diesel ( obviously non-prototypical ). Shot it in Denison this spring.

Looks like that second unit is an I&O. Is it also a leaser? Looks like a stencil on the cab? Boxcab E50
That whole string of diesels is made up of leasers- the IORY GP40 (on loan from the IORY, another RailAmerica line), and the ex-SP SD45 behind it (from CEFX).
