Western Railroad Discussion > RARE Two BNSF GP40X's in Omaha area Sunday noonDate: 06/28/15 11:39 RARE Two BNSF GP40X's in Omaha area Sunday noon Author: brc600 The 3030 was at Omaha, NE Gibson Yard with two other motors. The 3035 is the Council Bluffs, Iowa (across the river from Omaha) switcher with two KCS motors 4102 EMD Belle and gray GE 4620. Light was, of course, not good at all for pics!

UP got rid of their GP40Xs over 10 years ago.
