UP Green Goats
Author: ATSF429

Just saw UP numbers 2313 and 2314 tied down at the West Anaheim Yard on Manchester. Does anyone know if they are assigned to the Orange County area or just a trial?

They are the new power for West Anaheim yard, and will be working on assorted runs out of there (Marlboro, Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach). There will still be one RC set assigned there as well, possibly with third Green Goat.

They're not the greatest, but here are a few shots of the new UP hybrid engines assigned to Anaheim (California), shot on November 30...

I don't know about you guys, but I think those goats are the cooolllest lookin' eng's around. But then again, I prefer locals and their units over anything else anyway.

I agree -- I like the looks of these engines, too.
