UP 1833
Title:  UP 1833
Description:  When I first saw this locomotive it was dressed as Southern Pacific 8033. Now wearing new paint and new number I'm just glad it's still in service instead of stored like most of the other fleet.

UP 1854
Title:  UP 1854
Description:  A pair of former Southern Pacific B40-8s thump the former SP double diamonds of Englewood Yard (also former SP) on a transfer run in a heavy downpour. In less than a year the B40-8 will be stricken from the UP roster and scattered to new owners (and scrappers) across North America.

UP 1834
Title:  UP 1834
Description:  Parked in the Settegast Yard dead line and partially cannibalized. I wonder if the railroad or the locals are picking parts off. Note the missing horn.

UP 1835
Title:  UP 1835
Description:  During the days of Espee this GE lead hot intermodals across the southwestern US. In the days of UP, this diesel has bounced from yard service to storage and back to the yard. On January 11, 2013 UP finally retired this diesel for good, next stop unknown.

UP 1844
Title:  UP 1844
Description:  Built for Cotton Belt and used in high speed intermodal service. Now used in yard and local service by UP awaiting the inevitable. Five months later (almost to the day) this unit was finally retired for good, departing the UP roster on February 8, 2013. With demand for four axle power increasing hopefully this diesel will find a new home.

UP 1859
Title:  UP 1859
Description:  This former SP unit is one of many former SP, SSW, and CNW units stored in the Davidson Yard dead line. Only recently have the B40-8s returned to active service. I wonder how much water is inside the manifold.

UP 1873
Title:  UP 1873
Description:  In the days of SP the B39/B40-8 fleet sped intermodal trains around the SP system. UP uses these in local and low priority service when they aren't rusting away in storage. These diesels are now being retired by UP, hopefully these guys will find a second career rather than the scrapyard. Note the concrete structure next to the tracks, looks like a guard house.

ATSF 7448
Title:  ATSF 7448
Description:  Who would have guessed the first 40 B40-8s built for Santa Fe would lead to Warbonnet red and silver B40-8Ws? On this day 7448 is just another four axle GE chugging past Tower 55 on a northbound empty grain train overshadowed by the Warbonnet GE leading.
