Allegedly upgraded to 3000 HP but still looking exactly like its as-built U28C model, one of only four on the L&N and handed down via SBD.

Yes, that is a coal seam in the upper background above my favorite CSX GE.

A Union Pacific GE U30C and two C30-7 units are all clean under a clear blue sky in Cheyenne.

AAR trucks, but no rotating light housing, a dead giveaway for an ex C&O classic.

Originally L&N and then SBD, this early phase U30B was actually on the point of a southbound freight doing some switching.

Newly repainted and probably on borrowed time, this unit is far away from the high priority freights it was purchased for.

L&N acquired only four U28Cs. They were later upgraded to 3000HP and fortunately looked unchanged.

BN 5450, a former U28B mates up with a U25B at North La Crosse, Wis. on a cool spring day. Although the paint job is less than a year old, it is already peeling a bit. This unit was made famous by... (more)

Northbound departing train is probably a turn/local to Patio Yard, as evidenced by the mixed freight. I like the matched set of gloriously unmuffled chuggers.

A pair of C&O U-Boats, both with some carbody doors open, are seen on the B&OCT through Hammond. Tom Golden photo.

Oh they were turkeys but four of them on a big coal train was sweet music nevertheless. This southbound is nearing the end of double track on its trek to a powerplant somewhere.
