Here's a picture of a mile of sidelined locomotives at Nampa, Idaho. I'm told that these locos are not EPA Tier 3, and have been sidelined because of low demand due to the current economy. There are also reportedly 600 idled locos at Ogden, UT.

Thanks to Ed Kravitz, brother of Jody Kravitz, a friend from my bright college days of 40 years ago for this picture. His Web site is www.piraterail.com.
