GAXX 2287
Title:  GAXX 2287
Description:  The newest arrival to the Gerdau (former Chaparral) Steel plant in Midlothian is this NRE Genset working with an older SW1200. God was on my side today as both units were parked next to the highway and a stopped freight moved out of the yard giving me a clear shot of these two. Thank you!
