QUOTE: Originally posted by Mookie Ok - I'll ask, too. What are the first 3 engines (railroad name) and (boy am I going out on a limb here) is the first one a GP38,39 or 40?
QUOTE: Originally posted by CShaveRR Where'd you get the picture? There might be one of this engine from the same source (or maybe one of the green EJ&E switcher that would show the other switcher to better advantage). I don't remember many 70-tonners with side handrails, but the cab profile looks too low to be an SW1000, SW1500, or MP15 (SW1001, perhaps?). The roof is too flat for any other EMD switcher; maybe even for these 645-engined units. You might as well have asked about the car behind it!
