Posted by Jeff Sell on January 8, 2015  This is one unique train photo! Posted by Russell Wiggins on January 8, 2015  Gruesome....the severed heads of for Amtrak F40's on display. Posted by on January 8, 2015  This is pretty wild. Well, not so pretty for the F40s... Posted by Matt Hultman on January 8, 2015  say take the number boards! Great Pic Derek! Posted by Arne Brown on January 8, 2015  I want to say something here, but I'm at a loss for words! Posted by Herb Brown Jr on January 8, 2015  A sad ending for the former work horses of Amtrak. They are missed. Posted by Janusz Mrozek on January 8, 2015  Reminds me of Cadillac Ranch, the line of half-buried cars in Texas. Posted by Matt Donnelly on January 8, 2015  Sad!! This must mean I'm getting old. Posted by Jeff Carlson on January 8, 2015  I mean, I want to favorite this one, but... Posted by cnw4007 on January 8, 2015  Are they selling the strobes? Maybe that will make me visible in traffic nowadays. Posted by Toby Schwartzman on January 9, 2015  The one in the foreground has ditch lights installed, but not the others. Did Amtrak have an alternative for the others, or did they have an exemption to that requirement? Posted by Tom Gorton on January 9, 2015  Corpses pointing to the Great Beyond. Posted by Steve Larson on January 11, 2015  Derek, Thanks for sharing this photo from "Larry Land". It may only be Amtrak but it saddens me none-the-less. It would be neat to get one of the builder plates. Posted by Charles Holzer on January 12, 2015  Three of those may have been dead long before the end of the F40's on Amtrak, no ditch-lights! Posted by Emmanuel R. Savage on January 12, 2015  Always sad to see the end of legends.... Posted by Steve Harenda on January 12, 2015  Is Larry's just giant "You Pull It' for railroads? Me thinks there could be many an hour spent just grabbing trinkets!! Posted by Kurt Wayne on January 12, 2015  Janusz, I was going to call this "AMTRAK ranch". Posted by Jessica Wray on May 25, 2015  On the very right edge of the photo I see a Phase II F40. I wonder if a museum might be willing to buy it and restore it to look brand new. Posted by showalterbj on December 20, 2015  On numerous occasions I have visited auto salvage/wrecking yards. Seldom do you see windshield wiper arms and headlights. These are usually pulled very soon after the vehicle arrives. Seems to me that the couplers would still have immediate salvage value. Evidently the value of scrap iron isn't high enough to support the labor to recycle it.
