Western Railroad Discussion > I swear I'm not seeing things...

...but at around 17:15 CT last night (Monday, 06/30/25), I saw what appeared to be a freshly-painted, HIGHLY Milwaukee Road inspired GP coupled to a BNSF unit working aroud Ash Grove Cement in the Rosedale area of Kansas City, KS (BNSF Fort Scott Subdivision, around MP 3.5).  While I couldn't get a good look as I was driving NB on I-35, and I couldn't make it out, it had a white unit number near where the dynamic brake blister would be.

I haven't been able to track anything down online yet, so for my own sanity, can anyone please confirm I did, in fact, see the above locomotive?  Any additional details about it will be appreciated, as well.  Thank you in advance!

HRMX 9120 moving from the Mt. Rainier Scenic to its new home at the Branson Scenic Railway.

Your sanity is intact. 😀

What became or is coming for the GP-30??

Long-term future not known, but it's down with a mechanical issue. Branson Scenic had to pause operations for a bit because they couldn't run the train due to lack of motive power. Operations are set to resume July 3rd.

A much better paint scheme than BNSF's!
