Sexy SD40s
If there was ever a pair of SD40s to be considered "Sexy", the ones operated by the Western Fuels Association on the Escalante and Western would be contenders. Here's two of the three SD40s they ran at Barstow, shortly after reconditioning and paint on January 21st 1985. All three SD40s were of B&O ancestry. Of course the one time I got out that way, the train didn't run. I planned a second trip this past Spring, but Covid put a halt to that...thus I never got to shoot this little railroad before they shut down in Spring 2020. Paul Wester photo, JL Sessa collection.
