CP 490 for the record books |
Description: |
Pulling around the bend at Glenwood is what I'd been waiting for going on five days. Since coming West under darkness on the night of the 12th, this consist was on my radar and I was determined to get a shot of it. Five days later, six different call times later, a new lead unit and an MP15AC for good measure, and its finally about to happen. |

In my eyes, the SD40-SD45 lines from 1966-1971 were two of the best looking units ever produced. The spacing, overall length, truck design, and simplicity was spot on. And to see an old soldier like this with new paint, A/C, open bearings, and an electric handbrake is just plain awesome. |

A wonderful set of power on 391 sits the night out at Hinckley waiting for a crew. Nice to see the 8400 again, this time in my home state. |
