KANSAS CITY March 10 1979 — Kansas City Southern SD40-2 646 rests while waiting for work. EMD built the unit in January 1972. My photo.
KCS 646 rearranging cars at the KCS Shreveport Yard through Remote control
Southbound #95 with three white SD40-2's. Shot, I believe, from the Route 43 overpass.
Good ole classic KCS SD40-2's rolls through the south wye with a short manifest, not a "Retro Belle" in sight...
In the early tiny road number variation of the white paint scheme.
Four SD40's out of the retirement home in Pittsburg KS to help out the power shortage on the KCS west end. KCS 646 - KCS 3165 - KCSM3001 - KCSM3000
The KCS turn to BNSF's Alliance Yard is a few miles out of Wylie (TX) Yard as it heads into the sunset over former Cotton Belt trackage with a quartet of rebuilt SD40-3's.
