Odd One Out
Title:  Odd One Out
Description:  At a sign welcoming you to UP's locomotive facility, AMTK 120 sits nose-less among UP locomotives. The locomotive was wrecked in April 2013 in a collision between Amtrak Train #1, the westbound Sunset Limited, and a big-rig in Lissie, TX. At this point in time, the unit was waiting to be sent up to Amtrak's Beech Grove Shops.

When this photo was taken, the unit was waiting to be taken up towards Amtrak's Beech Grove, IN shops by UP.
