Great photos !

Oh, noooo! Something major or are they in for inspection? === === = === JLH

The B-unit is down and has been for a while.  The crew yesterday picked up the other A at LaHarpe and dropped off the ATSF patched GP20.  The job now has a Pioneer black GP20 and the two FP9's as of today.

Really like #3. Great chase

Good to hear. That B seems to be in the shop more often than not.

Enjoyed your Keokuk Junction (KJ) post in May 2016.  Does KJ run west to Bushnell on Mondays or Tuesdays?  Daily operation with the F-units?!?  How many F-units do they have operating in June 2016?

Appreciate your help as I will be in the area next Monday and Tuesday.
