Oil train DPUs
Title:  Oil train DPUs
Description:  I caught a 110 car oil train at Decatur with these CP units working as the DPU, capping off a NAFTA consist. How so?? The leader was a KCSM gray GE, followed by a couple of the US assigned units, though one of those was former TFM. Everybody can play!!

Title:  Going away
Description:  The oil train is rolling south away from my perch on the Ark 12 overpass, the exhaust from the DPUs making the string of tanks shimmer in the late afternoon sun.
