Remarks & Notes

One of the famous T-2s is on its last leg of life on main line duty for the UP. I shot this unit on a few occasions with different left numberboard versions. The 8309 was a frequent Cajon traveler in the 2000-2001 era. In this shot some duck tape and cardboard cover up what should be the other 8309 front numberoard

Special Duty Locomotives Album created by member John Westfield	Album Views: 102,478
The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.

After years of service, even the most reliable of locomotives get worn out.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
