[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 806648, member: 10543"] Two more Lancaster & Chester units I saw on Thursday. GP-38AC 2829 as seen in Lancaster, SC is former Southern Railway 2829 and SD-40T-2 6002 found at Heath Springs, SC is former Southern Pacific 8257. Geeky rail trivia -- the 6002 is a "tunnel motor" with its radiator air intake at the rear down low on the carbody. This provided colder air in tunnels, helping the engine to run cooler. The L&C has no need for this feature, but the Southern Pacific sure did.
