this GP35 was stuck in the consist of a BNSF Repo train leaving Peoria,AZ on its trip out of the Phoenix area

Does it count if the main subject is a Geep, but there's other power in the picture as well? Otherwise I'll have to choose another one, but for now:



Union Pacific local "Job 18", at the moment consisting entirely of GP38-2 UP 369, waits for the MBUVP (Manifest-Butler, WI to Valley Park, MN) power to pull west and clear the switch at Clyman Junction so 369 can dart onto the mainline, pick up the setout just made by MBUVP, and take it south down the branch.

Here's mine:



These were leading a local back in May 2008. Thirty mintues after I took the picture, these units were involved in a side swipe derailment.

Two Iowa geeps walk the train off the transfer track and onto the CSX Branch.
