A bevy of old locomotives await an uncertain fate on the grounds of Progress Rail Services in Waycross back in 2007. Many of these train engines have no doubt been scrapped in the intervening dozens years. The engine nearest us is an old Illinois Central SW14, no known visible number.
Next to it is the Progress Rail (PRSX) 3608. It was built in 1980 as the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe (ATSF) #7491, a GE B36-7. It then became BC Rail #3608 and then was sold to Progress Rail and likely scrapped after this photograph was made.
On the next track over is another B36-7 that was also built for the Santa Fe in 1980, ATSF #7496, then BC Rail #3613. After this shot was made, she was sold to the Ohio Central Railroad as OHCR 3613.
On the track next to the BC Rail 3613 is CP 5831. It is an EMD SD40-2 built for the Canadian Pacific in 1974. After this shot was made, it was sold to America Latina Logistica in Brazil and became ALL 9480.
Crazy pool power consists, colorful gatherings of locomotives at a diesel service area, or a mixture of colorful locomotives in storage lines. A minimum of four different paint schemes required.
