Author: RI768 I tried a search for NREX5111 and came up with more pics of this unit.It looks like they are calling it a 38 now.It says it was ex SOO745,happy hunting!

Stopped there last year on vacation, but wasn't able to railfan...only got this shot from entrance. Operation was part owned by Noranda Aluminum at the time. Operation and existing SD38 in Jamaica was originally Kaiser Alumunium, hence the red paint job.

Author: DNRY122 I've never been to Jamaica (not even Jamaica, Long Island) but a co-worker visited there and brought back a photo of the bauxite train. I'll post it when I get it scanned.
