These units on this westbound coal train caught me completely by surprise! These are ET44ACs, GE's new Tier 4 emissions compliant units. I shot them a week earlier coming in to Denver on a Z-Train. I had heard that they were going to be used for testing in coal service. Guess this proves it! Two units pull a coal empty north (timetable west) on Main 2.
