This is an Athearn G69230 HO Electro-Motive Diesel Lease SD70M Diesel Locomotive #7023. Painted in an easily recognizable scheme, these EMD lease units wandered all over the western railroads in the mid 1990s to the 2000s. Both Southern Pacific and Union Pacific leased them in the '90s, and it was not uncommon to find them on nearly any type of train, so they are appropriate power for most western modelers of that era. Later on, the units went to CSX, but received only a patch and continued to run for several years in their leasing colors. EMD All road numbers. SD70 body with no rear number boards.
