great shot, stunning color! FYI, third out in the lash-up is RARE former UP/SP LTEX 4912, a straight SD45T-2. Not sure if Larry's Traction & Electric derated it from 20 cylinders to 16 but it might still be a 3600HP beast inside. Before the 1996 merger, SP did derate some of its 45T-2 fleet to 3200HP though. Original straight SD45T-2 SP9360 became UP4912 on 04.04.99, UP4912 retired by UP 12.28.01, temporarily relettered WP4912 on 07.24.01 and re-emerged in late 2004 as LTEX 4912 with black paint outs ( see http://www.trainweather.com/051604USupltex-4912-4RESIZE.jpg )
