It is kind of ERIE. It's like it's a ghost from railroads past.

That looks like an ERIE F7A or F9A loco

Is that what I think it is?!?!? :udrool::udrool::udrool::udrool:

It seems that after so many years, we are finally getting AC44s!

Look a little closer. Those are actually his AC6000 beasts in SP, which does look quite nice. The SP AC units only went up to somewhere in the 300's as well so the number is also a give away. Still beautiful engines whether they are real or not.

I believe the story is that the Southern Pacific had 3 AC6000's that were to be numbered 600-602 on order, but the order was cancelled after the UP merger.

Bingo! Same thing with CNW's order of SD80MACs, that was changed to SD90MACs by UP.

Wait, CNW ordered SD80MACs? If I had Photoshop, I would so be making a reskin of the RRMODS SD80s in CNW colors.

Yes they did! JointedRail even has their SD80MAC model done up in CNW paint available on their store.

Oh yeah! now I remember hearing about that one time! Amazing what you forget!

I can't confirm on the SP AC6000's, but I do say they look good in SP.... SP AC4400CW's were in the 100-3XX, I do believe the highest unpatched remaining one is SP 335, which I have spotted 4 times in the same month before. I love EX SP AC4400CW's, as both the patched and unpatched ones still carry flashing ditchlights, which is only signature of SP. CNW did not have them. #2, if it is unpatched SP, then there is always an SP logo on the nose, not the yellow patch with UP shield, that's how you can identify besides the yellow patch and red numbers.

I'm going to take a wild guess at this, and my two guesses are an Erie F7/F9 in the freight livery, or an E8/9 in the two-tone green and yellow.

 

[benjaminw]

OMG!

Oh dear, trainsmaster2142, I think you broke him!:hehe:

I'm just going to let all of you know these are NOT E or F units or even EMDs (and they are ugly).

 

[Enzo1]

I bet its an ALCO FA.
