Heavies on The Point
Title:  Heavies on The Point
Description:  The new 2013 UP gevos are 8 tons heavier then the standard es44ac and were ordered specifically to be assigned to the I-5 corridor to help fix the problem of stalling underpowered trains on the hill South of Oakridge. At only a few moths old, these two are a testament to how hard it was for SP to keep their power clean when they ran the show.

5 Locomotives, 4 Paint Schemes, 2 Railroads
Title:  5 Locomotives, 4 Paint Schemes, 2 Railroads
Description:  This was definitely the catch of the day on my relatively short Memorial Day visit to Eugene Yard, this was quite a rainbow for 2014-era Union Pacific as these days the vast majority of locomotives on trains here are a made up of a pure set of Armour Yellow, Harbor Mist, Red, White and Blue ES44ACs and SD70 variants, but on this day the lash up seen here definitely broke the mold (and there was a second patched SP AC44 in the yard too!). This is located at the South end of Eugene Yard, lash ups of power are often kept here while they await their next asignment. These units were built, from left to right: 2008, 1996, 2007, 1995, 2011.
