I can't wait until that tarp is off, that will be a beauty! Notice they are also reusing the tarps, lol!

"get the shot" MJA
|
It's got yellow pilots. Can't wait to see it!
|
My guess is that it will be the DRGW unit... Not positive thugh...
|
What a tease, somebody got a pair of shears
|
If it's going to be unveiled in Denver that means the C&NW unit will be unveiled in Chicago and the SP unit is going to be unveiled in LA or San Francisco

To be a true heritage unit, shouldn't it be a tunnel motor?
|
FYI, those pilots are not yellow. Should be Rio Grande "Aspen Gold" (also known as "Grande Gold") although honestly this DRGW heritage unit Gold might be pretty far off from the prototype gold.
|
I agree with joe. If the DRGW heritage unit was gonna be a tunnel motor i know the only canadate: SD40T-2 5371

I'm looking forward to seeing the unveiling truth be known. In a way, it's more exciting to see what UP has come up with then knowing the paint scheme befor unveiling. If CSX were to ever do this though, I'd hope they would stick close to their ancestor schemes.
|
What with the UP doing the other Heritage schemes, this is very neat how they are keeping everyone teased :)
|
Thing is, that's the lead locomotive ;)
|
Can't wait to see what this unit looks like when it is revealed
|
Good job, on the scene reporting! Oh boy, another one with a bright underframe. Sure looks to be a takeoff on the passenger scheme with the Grande gold. Are you SURE there wasn't a PA under that tarp! :-)
