ICG 6002 |
| Description: |
In the Fall of 86 I stumbled upon a string of SD40s in the MoPac/UP Chouteau Ave yard in Sy. Louis. For years I had assumed that they were bound for either re-sale or a more inglorious fate. Such was not the case, however, for ICG 6002. It would be re-built to an SD40-2R and continue to pPy the rails in IC black for another 20+ years. . |

Light engine cut |
| Description: |
Not sure if these were helpers being moved or traffic into/out of the Juniata engine shops, but Conrail sure seemed to move cuts like this around the Curve quite a bit...at least, in my limited experience. |

Mysterious Mexicans |
| Description: |
First of all, I know nothing about NdeM beyond what Ive just learned through research. But here are a couple of SD40-2s in shiny new NdeM colors that suddenly appeared in a siding on the ex-ICG line just east of Belleville, IL in March of 1988 -- and there they stayed for quite a few days if not weeks. What were they doing there? Near as I have been able to determine, they had just been re-built by EMD and were on their way for delivery south of the border. Why they were left cooling their heels in this spot is one mystery - never resolved - but then there is another. According to centexrails.blogspot.com, these two units were delivered through Texas in December...of 2006! Somebodys dates are off, but Im pretty sure of mine. Then again, could these two have taken 18 years to drift their way south...?? |
