With a several hour lull in effect, I decided to try and find how to get a shot Wimpey Materials locomotives, lets just say its NOT an easy task. Had to break out the ol "Billy Baroule" 70-300mm zoom for this distant shot of WIMX 6521, I suspect former HLCX 6521 sitting in the quarry at Annville, Pa 9/17/2015 |

Current Pennsy Supply locos |
| Description: |
Long gone are the GE U23Bs and B23-7s, having been gradually replaced with EMD 6 axle SD units. Currently, a PRLX SD40-2T of SSW heritage and a SD40M-3 of BN heritage holds down the fort. Notice the classic license plate above the headlight on 2836. |

WIMX SD40M-3 6521 roster shot |
| Description: |
WIMX 6521 hails from HLCX as their 6521, keeping its numberboards, but receiving an all-encompassing coat of blue paint (even the coupler!). Evidently, this unit was built as aSD45, CS 868. After a career with a 20 cylinder, it became a part of a Dash 3 upgrade program by Boise Locomotive for Helm. Its claim to fame can be that it helped keep CSX afloat in the early 2000s as they were desperately hungry for any power. The Dash 3 comes from the Woodward CLC system that controls it. CLC was never a large success, and Woodward stopped producing parts for it around the new millennium. In 2020, parts for it are exceedingly rare, and with the age of the installation, they have become unreliable to operate. More often than not, railroads will simply cut up a CLC equipped locomotive for scrap rather than spend the $40K to replace it, especially a ubiquitous locomotive like a SD40 type. Helm had such rebuilds in the 6000 and 6500 series, and can be said to be the only operating survivor from the original set of 26 units rebuilt (the other two, 6510 and 6517, are merely just empty shells for display). While it may just appear to be a bland blue locomotive, it has rich history and is unlikely to have survived. |
