Let me introduce you my new "road fellow" for the next four years. A brand new Kenworth T680 with a 455 HP Paccar-MX13 engine.
Designed for low fuel burning and equiped with a dpf equipped exhaust that eliminate the particles emission. The old one didn't burn more fuel than a Dodge-Ram or Ford-F pick-up in heavy use. This one will be more economic by multiple new options, sensors, computer monitored engine operations, driving monitoring live in the dash ...
That's the iron horse I will use for the next four years and it will probably be the last one in career. Retirement will come just after.
A very beautiful "toy" to finish a career !

Combining two of my favorite things, here we see the crew of an empty westbound coal set prepare to set the brakes and shut her down as a yard local in Rose Yard prepares to pull a pair of blocks and set them in the eastbound classification yard.
Meanwhile as a small crane hoists a coal car so the truck (bracket for the wheels) can be removed and the wheels get replaced, a Kenworth T680 hauling old wheels sets off for a destination where the wheels will be refurbished.
