That shot is either Don Ball Jr's or Jim Boyd's out of America's Railroads, the Second Generation. I guess copyrights don't mean much anymore. I wouldn't worry about the copyright for a couple of reasons. First the original photo is probably old enough for the rights to have expired, yes it could have been renewed. Second, while the original image wasn't the property of the person who created this, the modifications have created a new image. The only problem might come if the person who altered the original tried to copyright the new image. I see it as a harmless and clever gag, meant to fool the unwitting. Perhaps it's just a conversation piece, in which case it's working, because we are talking about it.

Thats what did em in. The whole point was to cut down on complex control systems by controling two prime movers at once. But the switch to easier modular controls made that a moot point.

Is it DD40X? For a rigid frame, I'm pretty sure the DD40X was the king. I understand they didn't last long mainly due to the dual prime movers. If one broke down, the good one was stuck in the shop while it was being fixed. The D trucks didn't help either. UP figured out that 2 normal units like an SD or GP gave them better flexibility. Actually, they were very successful. Most DD40s racked up between 2 and 3 million miles of service before they were retired.
