These two steam engines - buried in UP's 36th Street Yard - have had quite a trip from Oregon to Denver. They are ultimately headed for the San Louis & Rio Grande in Alamosa. The SLRG will use them on their tourist (passenger) trains. The steam engines original came to Denver via the Moffat, but got held at Winter Park because of clearance problems through the tunnel. So, they went back to Salt Lake and around through Wyoming. Here they sit, waiting to be moved over to North Yard and placed on the MNYPU.

Sitting outside of BNSF's house in Denver, this unit is one of only four like it ever built. When first developing AC traction motors, EMD used four SD60M's as prototypes, creating the only SD60MACs ever created. The units were delivered to Burlington Northern as BN 9500 to BN 9503. The units were ultimately returned to EMD and are typically found at the testing facility outside Pueblo. Here, EMDX 9501 is headed north toward the Seattle area for unknown reasons.
