Relative newcomers on the fuel ramp
Title:  Relative newcomers on the fuel ramp
Description:  4196 is the latest red and gray repaint. I wasn't aware the ex-UP SD60M group extended north of the 602Xs. Unlike those, 6031 is the dual-pane windshield variant (as opposed to the "Triclops").

WAMX 4196 has joined its former Hammond mate 4197 as part of the red and gray brigade
Title:  WAMX 4196 has joined its former Hammond mate 4197 as part of the red and gray brigade
Description:  Currently the latest to receive the red and gray dip (one can hope the SD60Ms will be joining them sometime soon). It and 4197 were previously in service at Watco's transload facility in Hammond, IN wearing their generic black and yellow scheme.

Freshly painted WAMX 4196 still in the same spot as last week
Title:  Freshly painted WAMX 4196 still in the same spot as last week
Description:  Why do I never get light like this on the leader of a train that's actually moving? Wish they'd hurry up and paint the SD60Ms so I could catch matching sets of red and gray again.

WAMX 4196 would appear to once again be a long-term resident
Title:  WAMX 4196 would appear to once again be a long-term resident
Description:  It was in the exact same spot when I was in Janesville five days earlier. Shortly after being painted in the fall of 2021, it sat (facing west) on the end of the fuel ramp at the south side of the roundhouse for several months. It was in service for a few months in the spring/summer of this year (of course I never caught it) but would seem to once again be parked.

WAMX 5907/4196
Title:  WAMX 5907/4196
Description:  Too bad I just had my phone with me. This is the first time I've seen one of the ex-NS GP59s that were acquired by way of Progress Rail and painted red and gray earlier this year.
