About 15 minutes after Peoria, the M-MATPHX passes Glendale. I've caught the trailing GP60M (130) before, but 150 is a new unit for me.
After missing a Z train with two AC44CW's seeing half of BNSFs heritage 3 GP60Ms and two Warbonnet B40-8Ws on the M-MATPHX was nice. 9:04 AM.
Fresh out of the paint booth at Mid-America Car is this Ex-ATSF GP50. I believe this one was involved in a sideswipe incident out west last year.
These GP-60's need to make more appearances....
This branchline train is called "The San Jac (pronounced JACK) Local", for its original end point in San Jacinto, CA.
