Fresh off CN rails today and onto LSRC are 3 more former Union Pacific SD-70m's. This brings the total to 5 of the 6 LSRC purchased earlier this year. Unlike the first two, which received the LSRC Blue and white lightning paint and lettering, these 3 will remain in UP paint for the intrim. Plans are for them to get painted as time and availability warrent. Numbers of these units are LSRC #6430, 6433, and 6434. With the upgraded track work on going on the Huron sub, LSRC has stated that Alpena trains may soon have 6 axle power.
