Ran across this one last week on eBay and thought I would pass it on! Three CB&Q SD45's followed by a UP U50 and another UP unit!

https://www.ebay.com/itm/RR-PRINT-BURLINGTON-ROUTE-CB-Q-EMD-SD45-LOCOMOTIVE-522-/233507814475?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10

Here's the kicker: The final unit appears to be a UP Alco RS-27. Note the rounded cab, which is shared by early UP GP's and GP20's. But the GP9's had transverse air tanks, and the last unit has an air tank in line with the locomotive and above the fuel tank. Also note the lack of a DB blister. The UP GP9's and GP20's had the very pronounced EMD DB blisters. If you look at the shadowing behind the cab you can see the air intakes and just a little shadowing at upper mid-long hood where the RS-27 DB inlet vents are. The U50 cab obscures the rear of the unit, but I think you can barely discern the full height radiator of an RS-27. Unless someone else sees something I don't, I think this is a Q SD45 - Q SD45 - Q SD45 - UP U50 - UP RS-27 lashup! Pheneomenal!

(Anyone recognize the location?)
