Amtrak NPCU #90253 leading Cascades #516
After the first Amtrak train left, the second Amtrak train arrived: Northbound Cascades #516. On this train, Amtrak NPCU #90253 was leading. It was originally built by EMD in 1977 as Amtrak's F40PH locomotive #253, using internal components from Amtrak's EMD SDP40F #574, which had been built in 1974 and was traded back to EMD for an F40PH instead. Like #252, #253 was rebuilt in the late 1990s as NPCU #90253. Though it is leading and the crew is in this unit, the locomotive at the other end is doing all the work.
