TIT NO |
Description: |
Parked at the Texas International Terminals is an SW1500 and SD40-2 both sporting a RailTex-like red and gray. The numberless SW1500 was delivered to Southern Pacific as SP 2611 SW1500 in December 1971, to UP 1179 on March 25, 1997, to UPY 1179 on August 19, 2003, and retired on November 23, 2010. The faded rear number board on the SD40-2 still displays 6931 which gives away its identity as a former Chicago and North Western diesel with TXXX on the cab, an invalid AAR reporting mark. Note the former Amtrak MHC boxcars parked in the background. |
