Storage Car Revival 3-14-11 - railohio - 03-23-2011 The Maumee & Western pulled storage cars from the out-of-service mainline last week for interchange with Norfolk Southern and I was able to catch the crew switching the cars in Woodburn, Indiana: CNUR7WeedsWoodburnIN3-14-11 by railohio, on Flickr CNUR7Bridge2WoodburnIN3-14-11 by railohio, on Flickr CNUR7SideWoodburnIN3-14-11 by railohio, on Flickr CNUR7RoadWoodburnIN3-14-11 by railohio, on Flickr CNUR7HouseWoodburnIN3-14-11 by railohio, on Flickr More photos from March 14 are on flickr. Re: Storage Car Revival 3-14-11 - Gary S - 03-23-2011 That's a great little bridge to model. Also, what kind of Geep is that with the funny boxes where the dynamic brakes should be? Re: Storage Car Revival 3-14-11 - Running Bear - 03-23-2011 The loco is a GP11. The angled cab and four exhaust stacks are a dead giveaway. The prime mover is an EMD 645. I suspect the boxes that you're referring to is the housing for the paper air filter. Re: Storage Car Revival 3-14-11 - Sumpter250 - 03-23-2011 Jeff's right. I believe that's a former IC geep, rebuilt by the Paducah shops. That's a nice series of photos. Re: Storage Car Revival 3-14-11 - Gary S - 03-23-2011 Thanks guys! I really need to do some studying on the subject. |
