AMTK 821
Title:  AMTK 821
Description:  Looking like just another P42DC, this is actually one of twenty P40DCs delivered new to Amtrak in 1993 as an AMD-103 by General Electric. Later Amtrak took delivery of 120 P42DC which look nearly identical to the first twenty P40DCs but feature an uprated 4,250HP prime mover and the P40DCs were sidelined. Once Amtrak received funding, 15 of the 20 stored P40DCs were rebuilt and returned to service alongside the P42DC fleet with no change into external appearance. The main spotting feature is the 800 series road number and a small TIGER decal below the cab window denoting the grant used to fund rebuilding. In this photo 821 is bringing up the rear markers on train 822, the Heartland Flyer minutes out of Fort Worth station heading for Oklahoma City.

DGNO 142
Title:  DGNO 142
Description:  One of DGNO's RP20BDs is at work exchanging scrap loads in The Cedars area of Dallas south of the CBD. This line was originally part of the Santa Fe line which ran east from Downtown and even had a major yard called appropriately enough East Yard. The line and yard is now owned by Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) and is used for light rail transit services, hence the catenary. DGNO still switches the few customers remaining on the line a few times a week, on this day I finally captured a train on this line, a first for me.
