Union Pacific SD7's were delivered by EMD in June of 1953. They had 1500 hp from the 16 cylinder non-turbocharged engine. It is an Atlas model which runs very smoothly with it's solid chassis and 12 wheel drive with two flywheels.

UP 2419 is a C30-7, delivered in June of 1978. The turbocharged equipped 16 cylinder engine produced 3000 hp serving 6 traction motors. It features rear mounted air horns placed near the rear fan housing, and window shades, rotating beacon, and firecracker antennae. It is a lightly weathered Kato model.

Equipped with a 20 cylinder turbocharged engine, this SD45 from EMD produced 3600 hp. It was delivered to the UP in March of 1968. It features rear mounted air horns, window shades, rotating beacon, and firecracker antennae. It is a Kato model, lightly weathered. (3633 was renumbered to number 33 in 1978, but again, I'll give myself a pass on that.)

I really like this custom painted mechanical reefer of unknown model origin. Weathered. Unfortunately, this model sits high on the chassis, and needs to be lowered.

 |
| Red Caboose 53' PFE mechanical reefer, heavily weathered. |
 |

 |
| Milwaukee Road 50' smooth side mechanical reefer from MT, again with the roof walk removed and weathered. |
