ECRX 36
Title:  ECRX 36
Description:  It took me nearly forever but I captured the elusive ECRX 36 outside of the fence that guards her home. This SW1200 was delivered to New Haven as 640 in January 1956, to Pecn Central as 9363, then Conrail with the same number. After retirement from Conrail this switcher joined Louisville & Indiana with the same number, then to Pacific Harbor Lines as 36. After SHL acquired new power this switcher was released and joined the Econorail fleet as ECRX 36 and has worked at and automotive distribution facility in northern Fort Wosth for the past several years.

FWWR 2008
Title:  FWWR 2008
Description:  After delivering a train to Dublin the power is spending the weekend in the yard before the work week begins on Monday. FWWR 2008 was originally delivered to Chicago & Northwestern as GP50 5081 in July 1980. After a long career with CNW, 5081 was retired as 5544 wearing full Union Pacific colors and sold to First Union. This GP50 was fortunate enough to escape the scrappers torch and found a home with FWWR now sporting a bell under the frame and recently installed cab air conditioning. It seems 2008 was involved in a scuffle and took one to the fuel tank.

Description:  Delivered to UP as SD40-2 3531 in February 1979, this unit spent it's entire career working for Union Pacific before entering UP's North Little Rock Jenks Shop for rebuilding.

I never thought I'd be excited about seeing an SD40-2 much less photographing one.
