Western Railroad Discussion > Smokin' at IRM Diesel Days July 19thDate: 07/20/14 12:56 Smokin' at IRM Diesel Days July 19th Author: kschmidt626 Some of the 20+ diesels fired up for the Illinois Railway Museum's Diesel Day's Power Parade. Some of them tried to imitate steam locomotive or maybe ALCO the Smokey King of the Diesels. It was great to see all of the diesel running. Each one passed in review and got a shot on the whistle.

Sorry about the poles and lines but without them the traction guys would get pretty pissed off.

Just waiting for a flame to erupt from all that superheated unburned carbon coming out of the GE. Date: 07/20/14 13:07 Re: Smokin' at IRM Diesel Days July 19th Author: PaulMerriman I love the BN GE, but I hope they get an SD40-2 in that scheme someday also!
