Broken Bridge |
Description: |
This photo was taken on 9-4-04 of the CN/IC bridge south of Benton, Illinois (I know I'm not in SEMO anymore!) where back in July a loaded UP coal train running over CN/IC track derailed onto Interstate 57. There were no deaths or serious injuries (except the road and bridge which both took beatings, neither one have been patched up yet). |

UP 6944 |
Description: |
Heres a look at the control stand on the DDA40X Centennial. It's little bit different with the doubled ammeter but otherwise it's pretty much the same as any other unit for the era. |

Areotrain |
Description: |
Rock Island Aero Train Number 3 sits idle but freshly repainted. This trainset is made up of an LWT12 and its 2 coaches, too bad something with such poor ride could have been housed in such a strikingly designed shell. |

Ex-CNW 8661 UP 9765 |
Description: |
Here's the ex-CNW 8661 C44-9W from a different angle. This is my favorite paint scheme worn on any Dash-9. Long live the CNW! I hope to see a few before they all look like this. |

Looking Back on ex-CNW UP 9765 |
Description: |
This is the view backwards out of the cab from the engineer's seat. It's hard to believe that the NS runs some of their locomotives long hood forward, this is a non zoomed in shot and you can plainly see that visibility is very poor. |

UP 9765 Cab Side |
Description: |
This was a rag tag looking locomotive. It was ex-CNW with the CNW numbers and ball and bar logo marked out and the new UP logos added. If that was not enough, it had a NS black cab sunshade, a primer air conditioner, and a UP colored access door. |

This is a shot of the locomotive's builders plate, which is more like it's birth certificate. Listed on here is the builder's date, serial number, weight, horsepower, and it was Made in the U.S.A.! These were some of the last locomotives to have a metal builder's plate, before switching to a decal tag. This is ex-CNW 8661. |
