No body shop needed here |
Description: |
The ex TFM leader on this southbound has no need for a body shop, as it is looking good rolling this GEMX coal train into the north end of Stilwell, cresting a short grade as it comes into town. |

Ex SP unit |
Description: |
And its clean!! UP has finally finished painting all its power in Armour Yellow, now that the last two CNW units have gone to the paint shop for the UP treatment. The ex SP GEs had been running around in patched UP reporting marks for years, and now all are repainted. There are two on this 123 car southbound on the ex MKT, hitting the diamond for the ex MP here at Wagoner. UPDATE: See Robert Jackson's comment below. I had read somewhere that UP had finally repainted all of its pre merger units in Armour Yellow. Apparently as of late March 2019, that is not the case. In any event, this one looks good in new paint. |

CMO |
Description: |
Some of the major roads have a number of initials that have accumulated over the years as they have made acquisitions and merged other roads. Some of these are still in use, having never been out of circulation; some have been retired, either by design, or have just faded away as their original owners equipment was retired, and been brought back. CMO us one of those road names still in action belongs to the Chicago, Minneapolis, St Paul & Omaha, which came to the UP via the Northwestern, who merged them in 1960. Here it is on a two bay hopper, almost sixty years after the original road was merged. |

Another predecessor |
Description: |
Or half of one. This SP car has either defected to the Southern, or someone painted out half the road name. Either way, this was one of a number of cars in this train still in predecessor road reporting marks. The diesel fleet may be completely repainted, but the rolling stock likely never will. |

For a cleaner world |
Description: |
Its interesting to see the promotional wording, such as it is, on freight cars. Billboard cars are for the most part long gone, but some owners still get a short word in, such as on this Transportation Equipment, Inc, tank going south on the ex MKT. |
