SWP 2002, AVR 2005, NREX 8749 |
| Description: |
The rare sight of these three engines working together is due to the fact that one of the SWPs engines is broken down. So an AVR (Allegheny Valley Railroad) engine was brought down from Pittsburgh to lend a hand. After doing numerous very complicated railcar switching jobs in Everson, the train finally crosses Jacobs Creek into Scottdale, with an equal amount of engines and cars. After a brief stop in Scottdale, their next destination is Greensburg. SWP and AVR are subsidiaries of Carload Express Inc., which is why they have an identical scheme. Also SWP 2002 was used in the famous "Unstoppable" movie for the locomotive on the excursion train that barely avoided hitting the runaway train. |

SWP 2001, 2002, 2003 |
| Description: |
Yes this was a planned meeting of these trains. SWP 2001 and 2003 have come from the direction of Connellsville with a short freight train and were waiting for SWP 2003 to attach to a string of covered hoppers and tank cars on another track. Then SWP 2001 and 2003 pulled up far enough past the switch on the track so that SWP 2001 could pull its train up on the same track, and then back the train into the other one, to form one long one. So at the end of this, SWP 2002 went back to Scottdale with no railroad cars. |

The three GP11's running light after doing a very fast dropoff of their seven railcars in Everson, Pa. From here they went back to the station in Scottdale. Behind #2002 are NREX 8749 and SWP 2003. Also SWP 2002 was used in the famous "Unstoppable" movie for the locomotive on the excursion train that barely avoided hitting the runaway train. |

Finally all three of the SWP red and yellow GP11's are together on one train. The Z687-29 freight local pauses in Broadford for a signal to get back onto SWP trackage. Then it's off to Everson where the freight cars will be staged. #2002 is a former UP 708 GP7 built in 1953. Also SWP 2002 was used in the famous "Unstoppable" movie for the locomotive on the excursion train that barely avoided hitting the runaway train. |

SWP 2002 |
| Description: |
One of the stars of the Unstoppable movie, seen here in 2011.This was my last photo I ever got of it because it has had a mechanical failure and is not currently being used by the SWP anymore. I am uncertain what its future will be or if it is getting repaired. This GP11 was built as UP 708 GP7 in February 1953. Later became ICG 8744. It was rebuilt by the ICG Paducah, Illinois shops to a GP11 in May 1980. |

SWP 2001, 2006, 2003, 2002 |
| Description: |
Southwest Pennsylvania Railroad brings out its whole fleet of EMD GP11s on this freight train going east on Track 2 Main through the Connellsville CSX yard. At the other end of the yard it would switch off onto SWP tracks, cross the Youghiogheny River and serve its customers in the southern part of the county. The weather forecast for this day couldnt have been more wrong, as they called for mostly cloudy skies with a rain shower. |
