Western Railroad Discussion > What Is This???Date: 03/05/01 21:01 What Is This??? Author: rrnut_99 What is the item the arrow is pointing at? It is on the roof of a BN SD9. Must be some kind of an EOT antenna?
What kind of horn bracket was used for this engine? It looks like a boomerang. L.G. Date: 03/05/01 21:43 RE: What Is This??? Author: alco636 I have seen that on BN's SD9's they used at their Northtown hump near Minneapolis, MN. I have been told the hump sets were, and still are, radio controlled. A engineer runs the set to the cut to be humped. After that, the hump tower takes over. The engineer is just along for the ride. So I am pretty sure it is the anntenna for the remote control hump feature. I could be wrong.
