UP has a few of them available in storage at Burnham (in Denver). The units tend to be older and most have been sitting in Burnham for at least a year. There are many C40-8Ws here and there is a string of SD90MACs in the distance. There units are the true 6000 HP units developed in the late 1990's. It is unlikely they will ever see service on UP rails again. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

It was involved in the derailment near American Furniture Warehouse on the Front Range Sub in June 2008. This switcher was being moved from Coors (in Golden) back to OmniTrax. I don't think this is the condition they were expecting to get it in! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Photo ID: 102406 Date Shot Photo By Saturday, October 18, 2008 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 1925 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots EMD Leasing The Oakway SD60s are some of my favorite engines on the rails. I'm a fan of the spartan cab (and these were some of the last spartan cabs produced by EMD), and I really like the blue and white scheme too. Granted they look a bit better in 1987 when they were new to the rails, but I'll always take advantage of two of them coupled together. I doubt their leases will last much longer...
