Excellent catch, Craig. It seems difficult to believe that anything so beautiful and so inspiring should be so short lived.

Gorgeous, simply gorgeous! I do wish though that they could have remained the 100 series Superfleet locos. The GP60Ms should have been given numbers in a different hundred sequence or start later in the 100s after the FP45s. Nevertheless, the greatest paint scheme of all time!

I remember that morning well! It's nice to see that I wasn't the only person who crossed the tracks to shoot the units.

Man, I wasn't alive at the time this shot was taken but seeing these FP45's just look beautiful. Long live ATSF, and great catch Craig!

Back when EMD was king, and locomotives had class!
