Passenger Trains > LTEX F40PH's on the moveDate: 07/20/21 15:14 LTEX F40PH's on the move Author: Q-GP30 At 4 PM today LTEX F40PH's 310 & 330 were observed in the BNSF yard at West Quincy MO. They reportedly came in on a TULGAL from St. Louis. Frequently old motors are held here for the WQMDMO (West Quincy to Des Moines) dropping them off at Albia for RELCO. Any ideas where they came from and where they are going?

Indeed they were - here's 310 with St-Hilaire line train #816 back on May 3rd, 2013.

Date: 07/21/21 18:26 Re: LTEX F40PH's on the move Author: Q-GP30 Occasionally they will throw on a Des Moines train from West Quincy, most of the time it will be empty grain hoppers for Pleasant Hill. Most of the carload goes to Galesburg then west. The two F40’s are heading to Ohio last I heard. At 4 PM tonight they were behind 2 CSX GE’s, a BNSF GE and a Helm GP38-2 ready to depart for Galesburg.
