Ex-Algoma Central FP9 moving west
Author: tferk

BUGX 1751 is on H-GALBAR8-01A moving west to California.  Was near Peach Springs, AZ on the BNSF Seligman Sub about 11:15am PDT.  

Here is my photo of it west of Flagstaff this morning.  The unit is off the deadline at Pioneer Railcorp's Keokuk Jct Rwy.

Who is it going to in California?
Looks like it could be a nice loco with a bit of work.

BUGX has been on a tear lately with buying a lot of locomtive odds and ends.  Who knows what he has up his sleave but he does pretty well for himself.
