Logansport, IN mural on the side of the Transco Railway Products building. Amazing.

Their earlier large narrow gauge EMD DDM45 locomotives had 4-axle "D" trucks.

That's cool, never saw the 4 axle trucks on anything other than the DD-35A/Bs and the DDA-40Xs'
I saw one of the last remaining DDA-40AX Centennials that UP has on display in Omaha years ago on a trip to Wyoming. That thing's almost 100 feet long and weighs 545,000 lbs. Impressive piece of machinery. There are 11 Centennials in existence yet, at museums and parks.
UP used two of them and an SD-40, I think, to get 15,000 hp to pull container trains over the route to the west coast and back.

GM and a railroad, don't know which one, experimented shipping Chevy Vegas vertically in special cars for a short time. Didn't look like a good idea to me.

What could possibly go wrong?
