Nice photo taken in the Spring of 2019 at Echo Canyon, UT. For a short time I helped some older ranchers in SW S Dakota and he had worked on BN's main line there on steam engines.

This YTer allegedly derailed the train and filmed it.

This vid came in on my feed the other day. Since I am a child of the diesel era, it was of interest to me. Pretty decent quality for the time, somewhere around 1975. Love seeing the old names that no longer exist. Anyone from KCMO would recognize the yards, West Bottoms, Union Station, North Kansas City.


Have not checked the engine numbers from the video, but there are some KC Terminal EMD SW 1200's like this one I photographed running in an alley in 1992.

Local track maintenance in my ‘hood.
We were using the crossing to carry fallen tree logs across the tracks when they showed up.
