Remarks & Notes

The former EMD demo SW1 #700 is seen pulled out of the roundhouse for one last time. In just a few hours, the scrapper went to work on a locomotive that should have been preserved in a more secure location and donated to a museum a long time ago.

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.
