Remarks & Notes

Wish I'd had a wide-angle to capture the cranes of destruction too while Union Pacific DD35 #75B spent it's last hours on the planet at "Scraporano." Build at LaGrange in May of 1964, this unit was just over 15 when it met the torch. Interesting that it was brought all the way to NJ to be scrapped, marking its final miles (dead in tow) on Conrail's former Jersey Central Newark Branch and through tiny Brills Yard.

These are engines that are either already scrapped, are in deadlines, or they're in severe danger of being scrapped. Not everything can be preserved.
