Wonderful Santa Fe flare-!  Glad you got on the right side of the fence with a friendly conductor.  Great memories, indeed-!

What a stunning shot! GP40X 2nd out as well.

Why do some SD45s not have brake pistons visible on the trucks?

Some 45's had three brake cylinders on the outside of the truck, like UP's, and some had only two that were squeezed between the wheels, like this Santa Fe.
