U30C Burlington Northern 5383 with PM-8901


Metra F40PHM No. 213 with roof mounted PM-8911s (or PM-8913) together with a roof mounted horizontal 20585 Gyralite (red lens on locomotive's left)
The date of photo makes it possible that one or both beacons could be the latest PM-8913 model - which looks identical to the PM-8911.
