D-LACBAR3-06M
Title:  D-LACBAR3-06M
Description:  There are thirty locomotives in this image... two GEVOs on the front and two GEVOs on the back sandwich 26 DIT and I believe LUGO Dash 8s, which are being moved from the soon to be reactivated Citcom Yard in Commerce CA to Barstow, where they can be kept safe in the desert. I'm pretty confident that this is the last I will ever see of them.

D-LACBAR3-06M
Title:  D-LACBAR3-06M
Description:  The D-LACBAR3-06M creeps along at about 5 or 10 MPH on the North Vail Lead. The train is made up of four ES44DCs (two on the front and two on the back) and 26 DIT (dead in transit) Dash 8-40CWs. Having already come to the realization that I am aging with the retirment of Class One Dash 7s, now seeing a railroad completely rid itself of Dash 8s is all the worse. The units are going to be stored in Barstow for now, but are unlikely to ever turn another wheel for the BNSF.
