Remarks & Notes

This is the shell of former NP RS-11 905 (BN 4185) which was purchased in 1988 as a parts source and by 2000 it had done its part to keep the LTV Steel Mining Co. RS-11 fleet running. This shell managed to survive the torch because it was probably "thrown out back somewhere". Out of sight, out of mind.

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.

Prototype for everything . . . Album created by member mattkdettman	Album Views: 400,782
Do you ever get the feeling as a model railroader, that you just might be creating something not "prototypical?" Same here.

Pictures of things often unseen in the world of railroading. Interesting equipment, operations, and people that help the railroad go around.
