Eastbound "Triclops" |
Description: |
Two SD60Ms, the first one a triclops, pass the Metrolink platforms. Based on the older power, I believe that this is a Hauler or Local coming out of East Yard (which is just west of here) to the carload facility in Montclair. But, I have no way of knowing. This is UP's Los Angeles Sub, the former Los Angeles & Salt Lake RR. The triops was delivered in November of 1990 as part of UP's fourth order for SD60Ms (the five orders totaled 362 units). It has since been renumbered to #2408. |

Title: |
UP 6085 AT LAUPT 50th |
Description: |
First time a railfan sees a new locomotive model is always fun... this photograph was my first of two types, my first SD60M and my first Dash 8-40B. It was taken at LAUPT's 50th Anniversary while everyone was looking at the covered wagons and steam engines. These two units were futher down the platform -- a brand new SD60M (UP 6085 - EMD 1/89) and a brand new Dash 8-40B (ATSF 7437 - GE 4/89). I believe that 6085 was the first production SD60M ever. |
