Originally purchased for the Ephrata Valley Railroad roster, this Tyco locomotive (along with the rest of my Tyco locomotives & train cars) are in the process of being transferred to my RETRO TYCO layout in order to keep my complete Tyco collection organized. This video captures this Union Pacific SD24 "Dependable Transportation" hauling mixed freight consisting of hoppers, as well as 40', 50', and 62' box cars!

Those SD24's look like atlas locomotives to me. I don't know why. I think it has to do with the fact that they have the correct truck sideframes.

Thanks guys!
