In January 2009, I set out to create a spotter's guide w/ images taken thus far...so I plucked a few dozen that you see here....however just last month they decomissioned just about all the old EMD locos. That's all.

The sun has set on the FL-9M's in Harmon for the last time.
All of CDOT's FL-9M's left Harmon Yard tonight never to return.
The Loco's were towed by the BL-20GH Eng 115 on train No 5790 to MO (Mott Haven Yard in the Bronx)
to be transferred to a New Haven DHE crew.
read it and weep.
