There are a lot of errands to run around Christmas so I was out again this morning. That was a good thing as I drove by Davidson Yard and spotted five new GE Tier Four C45AH’s sitting all alone at the west end of the yard. The freshly delivered but not yet in service locomotives from front to rear were the 2650, 2659, 2625, 2657 and the 2626.
I am not sure where these new Fort Worth built locomotives are going to be set up and placed in service, although it does not appear to be here in Fort Worth. I have yet to see one in revenue service in our local area.
After taking these two photos I finished up my to do list and stopped for lunch at 11:00 am in Benbrook. When I came out I heard the ZAILC on the radio coming through the yard, so I drove on ahead to the middle of the siding at Iona where I captured this broadside a few minutes later.
After long waits in between I thought I would surprise everyone with two blog entries in two days. Happy Holidays!
