FNM 3511 leads a nb manifest |
| Description: |
Ferromex' daily northbound, the DGDSF (Directo Guadalajara-Surfragio). It stops in Mazatlan to set off and pick up. It's journey has just ended on the Division Guadalajara and will continue on the Division Hermosillo north. This facility is the former Ferrocarril Sud-Pacifico de Mexico at Sin T-1175. The C30-7 was delivered to National de Mexico in Jan 1980 as their #6770. It was assigned by FXE as a "carga" unit in Division Hermosillo, but appears to now be in the dead line in Tepic. |

FNM 3702 Super Seven |
| Description: |
Ferrocariles Nacionales de Mexico Super Seven trails on Ferromex train DGDSF (Directo Guadalajara-Surfragio), aka "Tren 3511 del Norte." The Ferromex employees at the Pacifico depot told me "You're lucky to see a train here." Super 7-30C 3702 began life as NdeM U36C 8922 about 9/1973 and was rebuilt into a Super Seven for FNM by GE on 1/990, arriving us their #14002. A year and a half after this shot, she was wrecked on 6/26/2004 near Tula in an accident with another train. |

Ferrocarril del Pacifico Shops |
| Description: |
Still in FNM paint, but with a Ferromex patch, C30-7 #3529 gets a look see in the former FCP shops two days after Christmas. I was able to visit this location through a kind contact, and was shown around by the local Ferromex employees, who had to be some of the nicest folks you could ever meet. They met me at the bus, took me through the facilites, and then waited with me for a bus back to my hotel. This unit is at home, having once been Ferrocarril del Pacifico #440, built in 1981 (I think for the NdeM). |

Santa Fe westbound along I-40 |
| Description: |
Nearing Milepost 328, just east of the bridge at the I-40 Winona exit, an assortment of GE and EMD six-axle units roll along the Seligman Subdivision of the Transcon with a manifest. Two C30-7s, an SD45-2, an U36C and a Kodochrome SD45. There's little that compare to the train frequency on the Transcon through here, where it seemed to average three trains an hour. |
