These units seem to be longer than their US cousians. It looks like the rear end has some extra lenght and the fuel tank which needs a longer frame.

It's going to Australia where there is magneficent heat and hardley no fuel stops so thats whay theres a bigger fuel tank and bigger radiators that look like a AC6000 but it really is a Evoultion series this is the way Rio Tinto wanted there locomotives built.

Could this be a glimpse of a GEVO 6000 body?

You know, Virgil made a good point. This does like an AC60CW in a GEVO's shell. I would like to see GE come out with an "ES60DC" or "ES60AC."

On another note, if the 4400-horsepower GEVOs sound like they do, what would 6000-horsepower GEVOs sound like? Maybe I should write to GE and ask if they're planning on a 6000-horsepower GEVO. Nice photo, BTW!
