Arizona Eastern Railroad


This railroad is an ex Southern Pacific branch that runs from Globe to the SP (UP) interchange at Bowie. They are running some ex UP (nee WP) GP35's and some ex BN (nee GN) and ex SP GP20's. Here is a link to their web site. And I wonder where they got the photos from that they are using on their web site???? Hmmm.....permission should have been asked for the use of the photos, or at least a photo credit would have been nice. Its not that big of a deal though...at least they thought enough of them to use them on their Company's home page. Update (May 31, 2007) - I just talked to the president of the Company about this, and they are going to give me credit for the photos. He was a very pleasant person and apologized for the use of my photos without asking permission. Apparently their webmaster did it on his own and of course I'm sure the CEO didn't realize where the photos came from. No problems...all is well now! Thanks again Arizona Eastern Railway and Iowa Pacific Railway Holdings!
