middle: one of a number of MPI units used for a few years by Utah Rwy, Martin, UT 8-91.
bottom: a couple of different "flares" are on the point of a UP eastbound climbing Cajon Pass at Blue Cut, Ca 7-74.

Neat. Always liked high hoods and never can get enough of the DD35s.

Those MPI former SSW SD45s lasted a long time without being rebuilt on the SP. I think 9005 was SSW 9052. Not sure where they are today.
