Union Pacific freight train Tolland, Colorado with Genset locomotives

Union Pacific retired a lot of cars this year. I saw many trains with old cars heading to the Pueblo steel mill in Pueblo, Colorado, for scrapping. It looks like many of the cars in the beginning of the video were heading to the steel mill along with the Genset locomotives.

Nice catch! I haven't heard of any gensets being scrapped in Pueblo, to my knowledge the only old units down there are the SD70Ms, SD9043MACs, and the D9s all stored. I saw some of these units in Nebraska a few months back and they were being scrapped in St. Louis, MO. I'm not too sure on if the cars are being scrapped there or not.

I don't know if they scrap locomotives in Pueblo or not. I filmed some locomotives being scrapped in Saint Louis ua-cam.com/video/Qd3HbG1f2iQ/v-deo.html

Very Interesting information. I guess you're still on the Rocky Mountaineer train. Looks too cold for me as I hope to make it to my trailer in Florida again this year if I can. Thanks Tom.
