F-40 for Chris
Author: amtkrd4man

Old pic at vancouver, WA. Not the 231, but figured a 255 might do.

Aw man! Thanks for sharing that, I\'ll take any F40, any day! #255 has become a favorite among some people on the east coast, it\'s also the unit that was destroyed in the Silver Springs collision with MARC.

I hoped to find this specific locomotive at Beech Grove...

By the way, I like those platforms better than the ones there today. The older platform gave that "rural" passenger station feeling, where the ones today feel too cheap and a waste of tax dollars for a rural station. (No offense Vancouverians!)

I last saw #255 in poor condition (the wreck damage) in a dead line of freight locomotives outside the workshops at Altoona PA.
Seen as I passed on the Three Rivers on 10th May 2000.
