I'm keep checking that SP177 long time but still no chance since the coal train is running on the L.A sub.

also SSW 7279 is at SLO.

The unpatched unit in Arizona have been rotated on the various locals out of Tucson and Phoenix. I only see GP40 engines on the locals that tie down here. The SP 7675 started working one of the buckeye locals about 3 weeks after I moved here. Pictured is the 7675 leading the LKK48 (aka Buckeye East) out of town with the long hood forward, for some reason the local came into town the day before with only one engine.

A couple weeks after the SP 7675 started working the local, the SSW 7283 was put onto our other local, the LKK49 (aka Buckeye West). The unpatched engines have been the trailing engines on the inbound LKK49 and the lead engine on the outbound LKK48. Shown here, the train is heading to Fertizona and Helena for it's morning work. I know ofsix businesses that recieve railcars and a team track here.
