AKDN GP30 701
Title:  AKDN GP30 701
Description:  Acadiana Railway GP30 701 was built in February 1963 as Union Pacific 701, frame no. 7648-2. This was the fourth UP diesel to wear this number; the previous examples were a Fairbanks-Morse ERIE-BUILT A-unit from March 1948 until February 1953, a GP7 from February until November 1953 and a GP20 from July 1960 until December 1962. The 701 was one of the last GP30’s on the UP roster. It was retired on 28 July 1989 and was leased to the City of Mineral Wells, Texas three months later for service on the city owned, 22-mile long, Mineral Wells & Eastern Railroad. This line was formerly the UP/MP/T&P‘s Weatherford, Mineral Wells & Northwestern subsidiary. The 701 was sold to the city on 7 February 1990, but the railroad closed in May 1992 and the locomotive was resold to the Acadiana Railway by mid-March 1993.

AKDN GP30 3018
Title:  AKDN GP30 3018
Description:  Acadiana Railway GP30 3018 had been built in February 1963 as Denver & Rio Grande Western 3018. It was retired on 7 May 1996 and sold by the Union Pacific to Metro East Industries at East St. Louis, Illinois, in 1997. From there, it moved on to Larry's Truck Electric Service in Ohio before February 1998 and then to the Acadiana Railway in December 1998. The Acadiana had LTE repaint it into this green and yellow paint scheme, which was inspired by a former Chicago & North Western GP7 which the railroad had previously purchased from LTE. This was the Acadiana's second GP30; their first one was former Union Pacific 701 which they acquired in 1993.
