Yup! These are now doing trial runs through my area in Pine Castle and Sand Lake, Florida. They are very nice! Service officially starts May 1st.

That is it. I didn't get a good look at the nose, but what I could see looked just like that. Thank you.

If so, it was in transit from Motive Power in Boise, Idaho, to SunRail in Orlando, Florida. These are Motive Power MP32PH-Qs.It makes sense that they would go through Bailey.

Unusual locomotive @ UP Bailey Yard
Posted by okrailfan56 on Monday, March 17, 2014 7:35 PM
On Sunday, 3/16/14, while watching the UP webcam of Bailey Yard, I observed an unfamiliar locomotive in the service area. The base color was white w/ a light orange and light yellow trim paint and the side I observed had a sunrise pattern arcing over the walkway. I was wondering if anyone knows the manufacturer and the model number.
