RMPX 2482

Union Pacific 9384 Northbound empty autorack train with RailAmerica SW1500.

RailAmerica 2482 sits in the Puget Sound and Pacific deadline at Elma, WA before it was shipped out for rebuilding. I caught it on a UP train in Tacoma later in 2001.

Puget Sound and Pacific 1004 is obviously no longer working in revenue service. This locomotive was rebuilt a few years later and returned to service by 2004.

Recently sold to The Anderson (AEX), DGNO crews have painted out all the RailAmerica lettering on the hood and number under the cab.

Out of Service

Although the SP light package was removed a long time ago the larger SP numberboards remain.

Rail America corporate colors isn't enough to hide this SW1500's Espee roots.
