5:43 in the early days of the BNSF the GP60Ms would still be used on alot of the system, notably Chillicothe and Panhandle subdivisions according to a video. Otherwise good work!
They are my favorites but they're all dying out there in Crashes and getting DISTORTED, time to start saving them,from getting Destroyed in Crashes 😢,Save the GP60m and the B Units also!!!!
The GP60Ms were purpose built for ATSF. The crews that operated them didn't like them because they had a harsh ride. The widenose cab added too much weight to the 4 axle platform. The standard/spartan cab GP60s have a much better ride. The GP60 was built for high speed fast freight / intermodal use and weren't really suited for what they are being used for now. Too much power for 4 axles. ATSF also had 40 standard cab GP60s, along with 195 to Southern Pacific (lettered in both SP and SSW/Cotton Belt), 3 to D&RGW, and two to Tex-Mex and one to Savannah River Site.

Nice video and I have seen some of those GP60M's in the coaster maintenance yard in Oceanside on the Surf line.
