You won't find any new ACes on UP's line through Bloomington. It's all old school power in the yard today including a patched SP B30-7 and an ex-Guilford GP7.

An unpatched SP unit works UP's Bloomington yard. An unpatched Cotton Belt was also there the same day!! (There's a photo of that too.)
Unpatched Cotton Belt. Catch 'em while you can!
A quartet of UP locomotives shoves cuts of cars in and out of UPs Bloomington yard.
An ex-Guilford geep sits in UP's Bloomington yard.
An extra Amtrak set idles in UP's Bloomington yard on the Chicago-St. Louis corridor.
UP's Bloomington yard is bustling with activity. From left to right, units of Amtrak, LTEX (ex Guilford), HLCX (ex-BN), and UP can all be seen.
GM&O's F-unit fleet hung on relatively intact for several years after the ICG merger. Here rare F7A 811B, one of only 2 on the railroad, waits with F3's for another call south.
Even back in late 1977 any EMD F3 was a catch. This tired veteran waits out the Thanksgiving holiday.
