Western Railroad Discussion > Unrebuilt GP60Ms

Going off of the posts yesterday regarding the rebuilds, I went through the remaining 22 that aren't rebuilt or pending rebuild and did a breakdown by paint. Here's what I came up with. Any corrections are very welcome. Note, only 6 "pure" ATSF warbonnets are left in service according to this.

102 BNSF Warbonnet
104 ATSF
105 H2
106 ATSF
110 H2
111 ATSF
112 H2
114 H2
115 H2
120 ATSF
122 BNSF Warbonnet
123 BNSF Warbonnet
126 BNSF Warbonnet
128 BNSF Warbonnet
129 BNSF Warbonnet

Good catch, thanks! That's been added.

156 kinda got rebuilt due to wreck damage a few years ago. It was a mess, but the talented Topeka Shops guys had it looking like new. It was the lead unit on a stack train that failed to stop at Lebo, Ks, and ran though the middle of a manifest train going through a 40 mph crossover in the opposite direction.

Maybe that's why the 156 has these different styles of numberboard lettering, as seen below on the Pasadena Local in Glendora, CA in 2012.  Glad I got most of these when I could, with the 106 thrown in as well from the same year, in Azusa where the Gold Line APU/Citrus Station is just to the right of the picture.
