Alex, expect more pics soon. [:)] Now about the DD40X. The only one still in use is the one under Steve Lee's control. He is the head guy over the UP Steam Program. I have a video of me talking to him when he was in North Little Rock. Also have shots of the DD40X and the 3985 on it. I will make you a copy of it if you like. It was shot by one of my neighbors back in 1992 or so. He sometimes takes crazy shots but still it is interesting to me because the video was made here. I will head down and shoot some pics of the DD40X and email you some of those.
Your humble servant,
Jim

I've heard some things about those giant locomotives.
Are they still out there on the rails? Is UP the only company that owns them?
If you have any facts about DD40X's that would be nice.
So far i know that they are like two locos combined into one, 8-axles providing 6000 hp. If you are not sure what i'm talking about, check out this picture from railpictures.com
