The building on the right is a new waste resource handling center in Copenhagen. At the same time, it is a skiing center as they built a slope on top of it. Who would have thought about Denmark for alpine skiing.

Fozzie: "Our city just got a new garbage service. Their business is really picking up!
And no, you may not have my banana!"
GMTX 3306 is a fine-looking, snoot-nosed "SD40-2" that's heading towards North Platte, NE on the UP Kansas Sub. This is at Menoken Jct., on a westbound manifest out of Kansas City. I believe that it has now been rebuilt as an SD38-2. From what I understand, the unit is bound for a Waste Management landfill near Arlington, OR, across the river from BNSF's Roosevelt Yard.
This unit began life as the UP 3415 in 1978, and after a stint in a truly awful-looking LTEX/PRLX patch job, it ended up in fresh GMTX blue and white. Now, it's resplendent in this new "Waste Management" scheme that's quite reminiscent of the old BN scheme.

Organics was still a relatively new idea in the Peninsula cities at the time, so WM had this truck done up to advertise their service. From what I was told, the program was a pretty big success, but was discontinued when GreenWaste took over.
All around is just plastic and plastic. A huge pile of plastic bottles and garbage in thousands of colors—white, green, blue, red. This picture highlights a harsh reality of our modern life. Where does the amount of plastic we use and throw away every day end up? When we try to find the answer to this question, we find that some people are working, risking their lives, amidst such mountains of waste.

'Commingled' is the correct way to spell the term applied to collecting all material together for reprocessing, a waste industry expert has claimed.

I thought this truck was really cool when I first saw it considering it's a rare split body. The first time I ever saw a Mack LE Wittke Express in California was out of the Carlsbad yard, and I remember Trashman590 telling me it was also a 60/40 split many years ago. Last year, I was randomly looking up trucks in WM's fleet software and turns out this is the same truck from Carlsbad. I was pretty surprised to find out that it ended up all the way here in Castroville. Unfortunately, it was scrapped along with most of the other cool trucks.
