Canadian Railroads > MLW Monday- Old Workhorse At Prince GeorgeDate: 02/01/16 10:48 MLW Monday- Old Workhorse At Prince George Author: LKeithR I don't have a lot of MLW stuff so not much to contribute to "MLW Monday". I did get these shots of BC Rail RS10 586 sitting very dejectedly at the Prince George Railway & Forestry Museum in early June of 2009. Pic 3 is a "character study" of the old girl. There's quite a bit of interesting stuff at the museum but a lot of it needs some TLC. GPS Coordinates... 53.920882 -122.731468

In 2009 there was quite a bit of stuff there that needed "help"--don't know if things have changed since then or not. While it's nice that the equipment wasn't scrapped if it continues to be neglected it will eventually pass the point where it can't be properly restored...
