TR sure seems to have an excess of power these days. Now that they aren't servicing Olympia, it seems there are at least 4-5 units sitting at the shed at any given time.

2 SD70AC2 whatevers. work the hill
2 SD40 rebuilds, 1 seems to work the hill the other a spare?
2 GP40 dynamic rebuilds. Must work south tacoma, I never see them.
2 GP38's from olympia, usually see them sitting at the terminal.
Genset, usually see it sitting at the terminal
2 previous ECO rebuilds, i've seen them work the stack terminals and oil trains, but also see them idle a lot
MP15's always seem to be hard at work.
This new ECO. Is there going to be another one or just this?

If the AC2's are still having issues on the hill im surprised TR doesn't just work out some HP/hour arrangement with BNSF or UP to use the AC's they service for them there.
