GE was testing one new BNSF (#6601) and two UP (#7353 & 7354) locomotives on Feb. 6th, 2009. Also caught two CSX freights from the location I was standing. The location is the Walbridge Road crossing just east of the GE plant. Filmed by blizzard4800 at Erie, PA.
I am a "P" Company fan, but I do have a soft spot for the MILW! We camped at the Wisconsin Dells last year and our campground was across the street from the CP Rail (ex MILW) main. I was trackside every chance I got! I did post a video of the Empire Builder passing in front of the campground.

If you want to see what I'm talking about watch this in Hi Quality and pause the video at exactly 1:43 and this will give you a perfect view of the rear of the Hi-AD truck on the rear of 6601 as it goes by.
Piece out!
Looks like they are using the U.P. locomotives for load tests.
