[quote user="eolafan"] <p>This past Sunday afternoon some of us foamers were fanning out at the BNSF Eola Yard and the U-Man stopped by to chat with us for a moment or two. He was a young guy in his late twenties or so and he actually (perhaps mockingly) apologized for the "crummy looking motors" they are currently using to do yard work (at that moment a EMD leaser along with a BNSF GP30 and an old ATSF GP40-2 were doing the work in front of us)...all I had to say to him was not to apologize in that "any train is a good train"...he agreed and went on his way.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>The only 4-axle 40 series the ATSF ever owned was the x-EMD leaser GP40 they inherited with the TP&W purchase. Which was subsequently de-rated to a GP35, then wrecked in 1988.</p>
