The modern mainline local
Author: santafe199

How many years from will someone be shooting an ET44C4 in local service?

1. BNSF 1968, an SD-40-2 still in Cascade Green points local train L KAN 2111, more intimately known as the Emporia ~ El Dorado turn at Cassoday, KS on September 18, 2016.

Thanks for looking!

A lashup like this is also regularly seen on the Spring Hill local on the Fort Scott Sub.
