DHL commercials

Posted by FJ and G on Friday, July 9, 2004 9:47 AM

pretty cool, huh? FedX and UPS trucks stopped in middle of desert at RR crossing as an intermodal train zipping along at 80mph goes past carrying hundreds of shiny DHL trucks.

That is a cool commercial, but I still havn't been able to tell what company the engins are. All of the flats are TTX, but all I can tell about the engins are that they are blue and white, EMD lease units perhaps?

Based on info supplied from other threads and looking at the commerical a little more closely, the locomotive is a GP30 from Arizona & California (green & white).

I find this commercial amusing since UPS is either the largest or one of the largest shippers on several roads (Art contradicting reality, perhaps?).

The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul
