Happy F railfanning! === === = === JLH  Date: 11/23/15 10:16 Re: Almost Western F-units Author: miralomarail On my visit there on the 8th of this month, they had a GP 20 on the point and a GP 20 behind the F units and at La Harpe they picked up a F7 B Unit before going back East

was Western board. For the most part Chicago was the deviding line betrween the Eastern and Western carriers. zr190 Date: 11/23/15 10:54 Re: Almost Western F-units Author: trainjunkie Love the shot of the wagons and I've never met a GP20 I didn't like. Looks to be a former ATSF GP20u. Thanks for sharing.
