Thankfully there is a good number of these guys making of the storage lines and back out on mainlines even on coal trains. We've had 5 different sd70MAC's in the past 8 months on the Cody Local in Wyoming.

Am amazing photo,but kinda sad the SD70MAC's,are one of my favorites.

It seems that there is coal service up in Montana. I wonder why BNSF has just stored them here. I sure hope they return to service.

Hey BN, Park the Stupid sounding GE's, Not the awesome sounding EMD's!

The last photo I saw of this many locos parked on one track was of GG-1s at Wilmington, DE, in 1980. Hopefully, these won't suffer the same fate.

Man, right now it sure seems like a lot of locomotives are being used. I have seen the SD70MAC's coming back in force with one on almost every other if not every coal train I have seen lately. Hopefully they can make it back into service. (side note, it may also means newer and better locomotives are being used instead, but unsure what types of locos are there besides the MAC's, which are being outclassed by new engines)

Never a positive look for the economy or foamers.
