SD60M! |
| Description: |
After watching SD40s working the Logan Branch for nearly a month, new power has finally come up here. A duo of wide cab SD60Ms. Think about it, SD60Ms doing branch line work... that is the world we now live in. This is also the first picture on RR Picture Archives of a wide cab in Logan Utah (local railfans attest the first SD-60M units arrived in Logan in 2013) |

Triclops |
| Description: |
Around 8:00 in the morning on an overcast day, this duo of SD60Ms are fired up, hissing and popping while UP employees make final inspections. Facing northwards (up-line towards Preston Idaho) is this triclops cab style locomotive. |

Triclops Unit |
| Description: |
At the Utah State University library I found a book from 1989 detailing railroad history in that year. Of note was the large sections of the book talking about Union Pacific recieving its first batch of SD-60Ms and how revolutionary they were. Now, 26 years later the SD-60M is no longer revolutionary, working branch lines such as this. |

My Other Ride is an SD-60... |
| Description: |
From a nearby street we can look in on the Union Pacifics small crew building, and the convienent parking spot for a train... I wonder how this place will look in a few weeks when snow starts to fall. |

New Power at Logan Utah |
| Description: |
Sheesh, the uploader was broken for a few days; so this is a late picture. Anyway, Union Pacific has switched out one of the two SD-60M units and has now placed UP 1768, an SD-40N on the Logan branch. Here they are parked, idle, on a stub track next to Cafe Sabor (former Logan Station). Although the area is clear of snow in this picture, today when I uploaded the picture all of this place is being slammed in snow. |

And then the light went wrong... |
| Description: |
Turns out that around 1:00 pm the lighting on this curve doesnt allow for easy photos of a northbound train. Pity, it looked like a great photo op. |

Upgrade again |
| Description: |
After travelling downgrade, the Cache Valley local reaches a small upgrade segment near Nibley Utah. The sunlight is casting the locomotives in shadow again :( |

The industrial freight train looks very out of place as it travels through a new suburban area. |

Early in the morning; I photographed the Cache Valley local heading southbound. It is kind of a way to celebrate my 22nd birthday :) |

The SD-60 that had to hang out with the SD-40 units... |
| Description: |
Come to think of it; it is possible this train with over six locomotives on it could be the Malad Local tied down. I am not %100 sure, but the Malad local is known to be power heavy. |

Nose Detail |
| Description: |
Enjoy the 9000 series number and the weathered paint as long as you can; because next time we see this unit it will probably be an SD-40N. |
