UP'S Van Buren Sub  Contributor's Pick!       
UP Southbound Local Freight Train passing through Oak Grove, Ar. I was very pleased to find that UP 1900 was still in DRGW paint & the fact that someone had removed the UP Shield Logo Patch making for a much better catch, when you zoom in for a telephoto shot it almost looks like a true DRGW GP60, but what gives it away is the newer UP number series, still looks great considering & like hitting the lottery being this is probably the last DRGW unit left on UP that doesnt have a UP Shield Logo on the nose

Bernie Feltman General Very nice, William. This is one of the Rio Grande units without the UP shield - good catch 3/13/2012 11:53:58 AM
William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks Bernie, it actually did have a UP Shield Logo on the nose, but either someone removed it or it got pressure washed & came off that way, there's a bit of it still visible near the middle & little right, regardless of what happened I'm thankful it was removed, I hate patch jobs 3/13/2012 11:59:53 AM
