here they are, SP heritage photos, after camping out at roseville since 1am, finally around 5am, they untarped it, sadly it was un-tarped in the shops behind a closed door, but we wouldnt know the diff, it was just like an untarping, no one could see it, until they took it out of the shop, after they raised the door, 1st thing we saw was the nose, as the employees and UP workers gathered around the shops, they slowly took crawled it out of the shop track, and it was like WOW, that is AWSOME, then they ran it out of the shops to the main, then backed it into the track where the festivity was, even better, is while they headed into the track for the ceremony, the UP1996 and the E9 did a horn trade off, which was just, well, AMAZING

who's the 1996 dueling? the x 6051? like the sound of the E unit. what horn is that? i don't really recognize it, as one SP or UP used/uses. I don't like the sound of the new K5HLs (ones on new EMDs)sounds too..... weird compared to the original K5H. but that's just me. anyways very nice photos, nice movie also.

The X-6051 has an old casting P5. The 1996 has a K5LLA.

Great shots and video. I love this locomotive. I am looking foward to getting this one in MSTS just like all the other heritage units.

Thanks for sharing.
