@@MarkTraain I agree! From my house, every night a group of Geeps do some shunting. I can hear the horns from my house and every once in a while they will put UP 1413 the last remaining SP patched GP40-2 in service running. So it’s cool to see a trio of GP60’s still working hard!
Awesome. I'd love to catch 1413. Also, maybe you already know, but there's a former SP GP40P-2 number 1375 thats been back and forth between Phoenix and Tucson for several months now. I haven't been able to catch it, but I hope it's still around. Also, it's only one of two like it on the roster.
@@MarkTraain oh very interesting! I did not know that. Ive heard of her, but I didnt know she is still hanging out down hear near AZ & CA. I hope one day we will both get lucky enough catch her on separate occasions!
I am so glad you filmed these the way you did vs lately these shots that are so far off that one can't really identify the engines. What I do appreciate is that you watch the engines come to you and like when at the tracks we follow the engines as they pass by. SO many now seem to park their camera in one position and forget it. Only thing I find is to bring the camera back to watching the train come towards you in a fashion where one can see more of the cars as they pass. and then we can adjust our minds on cars that seem interesting vs just popping out of the side of the capture image. I personnally like to see the assortment of cars vs the containers. BUt a big thumbs up and sub too. You might oto mention the camera or phone you are using.
Cool catches of my fave UPs! Nice variety!
Awesome stuff! How many trains run on UP through Tucson?
These container trains are great for helping one fall asleep, like counting sheep
Nice video, More trains come to tucson az
Very awesome job! I especially love the sounds & looks of the 3 GP60’s! Those 2 stroke engines sound really good...
Thank you! The trio of 60s was probably one of my favorite parts of that day. Kind of a rare lash-up.

Wish you were on the sunny side of the tracks offering us more contrast but overall a great video
