TXR 125
Title:  TXR 125
Description:  The snowshield behind the cab gives away this big EMD's heritage as a graduate of GMD Canada rather than EMD LaGrange. Delivered in September 1971 to Canadian National as SD40 5211, this locomotive has been rebuilt and reclassified as an SD40-3. Still wearing the grey and orange of Alstom Canada but patched for new owner Texas Rockcrusher and leading a rock train uphill into Brownwood.

EMDX 2000
Title:  EMDX 2000
Description:  Delivered to Colorado & Southern as SD40 880 in April 1968 in full CB&Q paint, this unit would become BN 6340 after the merger, then to EMD as EMDX 6340 then rebuilt by Electro Motive to demonstrate older unit renewal programs. During the rebuild this SD40 traded the standard SD40 Flexicoil-C trucks for HT-Cs, electrical upgrades, and microprocessor controls installed by VMV resulting in this unit being called an SD40-3MPR. The HT-C trucks and EMD paint job makes it hard to tell this unit was originally delivered as an SD40, in this photo EMDX 2000 is idling in BNSF Alliance Yard in Haslet after delivering a manifest drag. After the demonstration tour was over this unit was sold to Portland & Western and currently works as PNWR 3300 in GWI corporate orange and black.
