SP Power
Title:  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.
