Comments on: For a long time, UP was a superbly run railroad, adding track and infrastructure and running a tunning number of trains. The order for these particular SD70s was an order for 1000 units….all at once. That volume of traffic made them my absolute favourite even if I never got to see them actually work their own territory; yes, a youth wasted on trying to find a career :). They still look pretty special, even solo, running through Galt with several thousand feet of empties behind as they pass the iconic Galt station that still really needs a faux train order signal. I must call Keith about that…..
