Freight Train at Albany, Oregon, on March 10, 2006

I photographed this southbound Union Pacific freight train on March 10, 2006, from my car on Interstate 5 at Albany, Oregon. Leading the train, Union Pacific #5385 is a 4,400-horsepower ES44AC built by General Electric in February 2005 and delivered on March 4, 2005. Behind it, Union Pacific #9570 is a 4,400-horsepower Dash 9-44CW built by General Electric in May 1994 as Southern Pacific #8106. After the Southern Pacific was merged into the Union Pacific on September 11, 1996, this locomotive became Union Pacific #9570 on February 2, 2000. HLCX #7230 is a 3,000-horsepower SD40-2 that was built by the Diesel Division of General Motors of Canada, Ltd. in London, Ontario, in July 1980 as Burlington Northern #7230.
