UP 572
Title:  UP 572
Description:  Delivered to Southern Pacific as GP38-2 4809 in May 1980, this locomotive was assigned to snow fighting serviced and based in California. Although this EMD now wears the uniform of new operator Union Pacific, the Espee applied icicle breaker, rotating windows, and center window grills remain. Note the nose mounted headlight has been moved between the numberboards but the nose scar remains. I don't know if these diesels work in regular service year round or are stored until winter but this entire group looks well cared for.

Flanger Set
Title:  Flanger Set
Description:  A flanger set rests in the yard at Roseville. The set consists of flanger 326, and GP38-2s 583 and 602. 583 and 602 are both ex-Southern Pacific units, and were built in mid-1980. They have spent most of the last 15 years assigned to snow service on Donner Pass. These units are fitted with snow-fighting equipment unique from their general service counterparts, including all-weather windows, icicle breakers (folded down on 583 and 602), and grating to keep the front windows clear of snow. Behind 602 is another GP38, the 572.
