Railroad photograph
Photo by: Kevin Morgan
Roughly 18 months prior to this picture, when there was a major upturn in the railroad economy, UP brought a lot of SD60Ms out of storage and activated them to help move the tonnage. Funny how quickly things change. At this point, railroads are experiencing a significant decline in traffic and all those SD60Ms have gone right back into storage. This particular SD60M is on its way from Burnham to Grand Junction.
