Western Railroad Discussion > Living Right

I must be living right - the sun was out today for a change, and I caught three EMD leaders in three different paint schemes.

1 - The Lind Local at Fishtrap on the Lakeside sub appears to be well prepared with two switch brooms carried in the front handrails.  They'll set off the bottom three units and the GREX "trough" cars at the Missile Base ballast pit at East Lamphier.

2 - A southbound UP grain train on the Ayer sub with a CP SD70ACu leader at Cheney.

3 - A westbound BNSF grain train in Marshall Canyon on the Spokane sub with an ACe leader.

Thanks for looking.

Nice catches Mike! Always like the BN 1979 and the clean red CP units look great in the sun and snow.

You definitely were living right.  Thanks for the excellent photo posting.

Love those EMD Leaders !  Nice Compositions.

Nice shots.  Always like to see EMD leaders, and this is a bonus post with the different paint schemes.

Very nice trio from one of my favorite parts of the country:  The Palouse/Inland Empire.

Very good catches. I saw the sun on the snow, but couldn't go out to play.

Good ones, Mike, thanks for posting.  BNSF 8501 in the third shot was a real catch, one of only 20 six axle four motor EMD's on the roster.  Great Catch!
