Enough Lights?
 
Between the L-glass windshield and an Alaska-sized light package GP40-2 3006 is enough to warm the heart of any Espee man! And while she looks like she'd be right at home grinding tonnage up Tehachapi she has called Alaska home since rolling off the erecting floor at La Grange in April 1975.
 
Delivered in this scheme but originally numbered 3000 she became 3006 not long after delivery. For 44 years and counting she has continued to move freight in the Last Frontier just like in this shot on the point of a long 120S headed to the barge connection in Whittier.
