Excellent shot. It's funny how there are so many photos of so much stored power, yet elsewhere on this site are photos of new GE units at the factory in Erie awaiting delivery to the UP.

That's an amazing amount of money sitting idle. Reminds me of the airliners stored just north of me in Mojave. Many of them are perfectly good aircraft, yet the new ones are so much more efficient that when used pretty much continuously they quickly pay for themselves in fuel savings.

I count about 150,not including yard power.Good stuff JOHN.

Undoubtedly those new units at GE were ordered before the downturn. The cancellation charges + better fuel economy mean it's better to keep buying.
|
I guess there will be plenty of cheap used power to be had for alot of the Class II's and shortlines still running stuff older than these.

Love all that UP power 4-lines of it. All in Texas good for UP. Very good photo.
