Posted by A J Erlichman on March 8, 2020  What exactly does KCS use these yellow unit for? I saw a snoot SD40-2 set up like this in Kansas City a while back.... Posted by Dale Roth on March 9, 2020  same here with the bridge. Looked out of place until I saw the tracks. Posted by Dylan Jones on March 9, 2020  It, along with the SD40-2, is used in MOW service. I believe they have Remote Control capabilities so they can move the MOW cars around the space they are working. Posted by Rich Brown on March 9, 2020  ?Que, Thats one UGLY lump of steel.
