QUOTE: Originally posted by espeefoamer There are 11 DD40AXs in museums,10 in the USA and one in Mexico.The UP keeps one in thier historic collection,and uses it occasionally when they are short of power.I am pretty sure the Bachmann DD40AX is out of production.
QUOTE: Originally posted by M.W. Hemphill Those are all real trains. Seriously! Generally the 6936 (the DDA40X UP has in its historic locomotive collection) is used for engineering department inspection trains, and occasionally on excursions. They have occasionally used it in revenue freight service in recent years.
