Because, this Unit stays in the Yard and switches companies around the town once or twice a week. terefore we call them locals since they come back at the end of their work.
Sweet video! Five star! You are lucky because you get to see ex Rio Grande locomotives. I think I've seen one but I'm not to sure. I get one daily UP train and it's had two ex SP GP40-2Ms but thats about all I get off of UP.
It sure is! My friend J.J.'s train had two GP60 back in October, but now he has two ex SP GP40-2Ms that were banned from Texas because of pollution, so now the GP60s are down in Texas.
have you been down by the steel works of of Highway 24? We bought some used railroad ties for our front yard and the tracks are right behind the mill. (I should say steel recylcers).
Nope, its not exactly off US24, you turn off at the first exit after crossing the I-25 and go down for a few miles, there is a small metal recyling plant in a large aluminum building (looks like a scrap yard behind it), you can buy used railroad ties (we did to line our driveway) and all sort of metal items from them.

Nice to see a MoPac freight car at around the 1:25-1:30 mark, those are getting rarer as time goes by.

I saw the ATSF local before from that mill.

No i'm not sure were that is or what it might look like

As far as I know, there aren't any steelworks on US24. Interstate 25 in Minnequah (Pueblo) is probably what you meant:)
In days gone by, the Rock Island used to have trackage along 24 from csprings to Kansas
