Title:  GMTX 2150
Description:  This pair is building a train in Davidson Yard. 2150 was ordered by Rock Island, served UP and is now a member of the GATX pool. I suppose it's current scheme isn't too different than the last scheme of CRI&P.

UP 7701
Title:  UP 7701
Description:  When I snapped this photo last year I assumed this diesel had been set out for mechanical issues. I guess I was half right, it was sidelined for wreck damage. I've not located any photos of 7701 after July 2011 so I don't know it's current status.

BNSF 2744
Title:  BNSF 2744
Description:  A pair of EMD four axle units sporting a fresh coat of H3 paint idle at BNSF North Yard in Fort Worth. Both locomotives were originally delivered to Chicago Burlington & Quincy, the leader in 1962 and the trailing unit in 1954. BNSF 2744 arrived as CB&Q GP30 959 in July 1962 and was sent to EMD by Burlington Northern for rebuilding returning as GP39E 2754. BNSF 1537 was delivered to CB&Q as GP9 281 in July 1954 and was sent to Morrison Knudsen for rebuilding returning as GP28M 1537. During rebuilding EMD made very little modification to the exterior of 2744 so other than the addition of an air conditioning pack on the cab roof, this locomotive still looks very much like a GP30. When 1537 was rebuilt into a GP28M the exterior of this locomotive was radically changed and looks nothing like a GP9.

UP 7490
Title:  UP 7490
Description:  Not the greatest photo but it's not everyday you see a brand new locomotive. This diesel was photographed 6 days ago leading a train out of Los Angeles, it has been in service less than a month. It seems GE uses a lighter shade of yellow and grey than UP repaints. I think it looks a lot better.
