awesome u got a UP GEVO!

Yeah all of the AC6000's have been Detuned to 4,400 HP I guess for fuel economy reasons. They are some massive beasts! I still love to see an EMD but where i live it is Ussually GEVO's on the main line. But occasionally i'll catch an SD70 on a coal train or pig train. Nice vid!

I saw two yesterday (3/15). The sound they make is the technology used in the Deuch MWM German prime mover that they use.

The AC6000CW is a beast of a locomotive. I absolultely love the sound they make. Its unique and you know what it is even before you can see it. CSX is supposedly having their fleet of them refurbed by GE with V-16 GEVO prime movers installed to replace the HDL prime mover.

ac6000cw's are awesome! i don't see them enough though

Nathans91 - you obviously do not know what you are talking about. EMD sales have gone down since the 1990s, and basically all of their units have been terrible misfits lately. Meanwhile, GE established a very successful prime mover that has proven more reliable than what EMD has offered. These GE units are putting your EMD units to rest. GE units used to blow up, when technology as put in the U and B-boats was used, now they have advanced. The AC6000CW units are awesome!!

GE's work well for years but with the GEVO series, they suck
-
I love only EMD's. To be honest, I don't like GEVOS or anything else with GE's. GE's are like alco's. They blow too many turbos and pistons throughout any railway's career that puts up with them. For long, you have big billows of smoke like a steam engine. All GE's do is blow up!
yep! their everywhere
