Atlanta Rails General All retired? Sad sight to see all these old classics being sent off, hope they find another home. 5/31/2011 9:22:21 PM
Atlanta Rails General Never mind read the album description................ugh 5/31/2011 9:23:08 PM
Joe Musolf General That's really upsetting that no other railroad would buy any of these. I'm all for preservation so if I had any power in the railroad industry, I'd get at least a few of these saved. 5/31/2011 11:51:43 PM
Ron Moraca General THE MRL IS SLOWLY RIDDING ITSELF OF OLDER UNITS AND BUYING NEW LOCOS LIKE THE SD70ACe, THE GEVOS, AND SD70M-2. STILL, IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SOME OTHER CLASS II, OR EVEN A CLASS III RAILROAD WOULD PASS ON OLDER POWER LIKE THESE WERE. SMOKIN' PHOTO, MARK!!!!!! 6/1/2011 12:15:12 AM
George Sillett General Sights like this really make my blood boil, put some in museums, restore some, give some to other railroads just don't scrap them. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr! 6/1/2011 9:41:12 AM
George Redmond General Good catch, Good shot. 6/1/2011 7:29:51 PM
Marlowe Barnes General Good shot and great album. These units were probably already worn out when MRL got them, and the rough Montana terrain probably finished them off. 6/2/2011 11:50:44 AM
