SP Power |
Description: |
Two ex-SP AC4400's sit on the WYE at Avondale, and this is the same WYE used to take cars and locomotives to the Transportation Technology Center. Not sure why they were here, but they were attached to an IC flat car. A few days later, driving by I saw them again and this time there was some UP power at Avondale as well. I suspect the UP power was to bring cars to Ordway for storage, too bad I didnt catch that move. |

Description: |
This is the front of the coal train that was seen earlier in the day, coming off the Northfork Branch. Nice to see an SP every now and again. The guy up on the bridge is "SD45X" (on the forums), he thought there was a good angle up there. |
