There was some talk recently about how it would be if the UP could have all six of their Heritage SD70ACes pulling a train together. Well, here’s a good start. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=156343 I have to say this is a pretty good lashup!
I know I am being overly spoiled, but I wish UP would have just painted their heritage units in the conventional old scheme without any “artistic liberties.”

They were trying to capture the best of the paint schemes all on one unit.
If they were to duplicate the paint schemes then they would have had to paint a unit for each decade of diesel operations on that fallen flag. That way they would have covered everything important.

I was wondering why it had taken so long for the 1996 to leave, I guess they were waiting for 1989 to get back to Roseville. I guess from the captions on the pictures in that series that it is on its way to Portland.
