I love the way UP mixed up their power back then. Appears that any combination was possible including the use of old geeps!

Great stuff. Keep it coming as long as it lasts.

Welcome.

Man back then it was a lot of fun to go out and watch trains!

I think part of the fun was that you didn't have a clue what was going to show up. Now days, there's still a fair amount of variety, but we've been jaded (my opinion) by seeing everything from around the country via the internet; when it appears in your backyard, it's no longer a mystery.

An SDP35, Alco 628 and a Q crummy. I just love it.

Alco C630 actually. UP had ten, 2900 through 2909.
