I think the Yakima Central (YCR - White Swan branch) holds the record for most variety of power - usually one on the property at any one time.

At various times, they have used, sometimes rotated in more than once:

Brandt hirail truck
#207 SW1000
#1203 SW1200 xCBRL (assigned, but found to be inoperable)
#1299 (got YCR reporting marks and tags, but never left Wallula)
The last I heard they were using a RS$TCr

Various engines (one at a time) were leased from Columbia Basin, and rotated out for 92 day inspections. I think all the SW1200s worked there before they were sold off, and maybe some of the geeps.

The CORP unit in question was actually one of several 38s purchased by Roseburg Forest Products for CORP to use as part of the deal to reopen the Siskiyou line. Due to the delay in reopening it, it was leased by YCR for a while before being delivered to CORP.

Others?
