Trains on May 3, 2007

Union Pacific ES44AC (C45ACCTE) #5302 at Canby, Oregon, on May 3, 2007

I took these train pictures on May 3, 2007. Union Pacific #5302 is a 4,400-horsepower General Electric ES44AC that was delivered to Union Pacific on March 24, 2006. I photographed it from my car on Highway 99E leading a southbound freight train through Canby, Oregon, in the morning. 

Kansas City Southern AC4400CW #4607 at Aurora, Oregon, on May 3, 2007

Kansas City Southern #4607 is a 4,400-horsepower AC4400CW that was built by General Electric in November 1999 as Kansas City Southern #2032. Following Kansas City Southern taking full control of Transportación Ferroviaria Mexicana and renaming it Kansas City Southern de Mexico in 2005, this locomotive was renumbered to #4607 as part of a system renumbering to integrate the KCS and former TFM fleets. I photographed it in the afternoon as the trailing unit in a southbound Union Pacific freight train at Aurora, Oregon.
