You got some nice photos there Steven, it's really sad to see all those units just sitting there waiting to be sold or scraped :(. Lets hope they get leased or rebuilt by someone! :)

Thanks for sharing them...

i found out that the DM&IR SD40-3's are there because of there lease being up not sure who owns them but hopefully the owner clams them and uses them.

Oh ok, thanks for the info. It would be a shame to see those units go to the scrap heap. :( I hope whoever owns them sends them back out in lease service or something.
