Does anyone here have any information on the old South Orient line in Texas. It supposedly is owned by TXDot, and leased by Grupo Mexico, but I...
Thanks, BN9900. The Surrey Cutoff is actually west of the area I was looking at. But after looking at some more maps, I finally realized that...
Can someone here please tell me if the BN line from the Twin Cities to Fargo, via St.Cloud used to be an NP or GN line? I know the line via...
Thanks for the info--The Athearn unit was in an old issue of MR (1980). I assumed it was stock, but may have been painted by the owner after all....
Yes, we could use some more power in proper Frisco colors, but I agree with the post about the Athearn units--They are the best thing that's...
Hey guys--two questions--Athearn makes a Baldwin switcher-I think I've seen it as BN 401. My research shows 401 to be a VO-1000, not an S-12 or...
Thanks, Gary, I'll look forward to any additional information you find--the layout visit sounds great--enjoy-and let the board hear about what you...
I asked the question a while back, but got a variety of answers--thought I'd ask again to see if anyone else can help--I'd like to paint an SW-9...
Thanks for the info!
Anyone down there heard any interesting information on the impending line from Alice Springs to Darwin? The little I know of this is because I own...
There is a photo of an F-unit that hit the dirt in Hoffsomer's book "The Quanah Route." I don't recall what the lead unit # was. Don't know if...
Vistited Hunt Yard in Greenville, Tx. about a week ago. Yes, it's still being used, although as far as the KCS is concerned, it's more of a...
Yes--got out my camera that I keep in the glove compartment just for such occasions-got plenty of photos. It's not digital, though, so when 1)I...
This weekend, sighted a BNSF train heading north out of Ft. Worth, Texas comprised mostly of Soo covered hoppers--noticed several subtle paint...
Hopefully, we can get a KCS board here soon for these kinds of questions, but here it goes if there's any KCS fans out there--I recently picked up...
I'd be glad to see more postings on the KCS. I put in my vote for a separate board some time ago--still hoping we get one. I'm here along the...
Thanks for the info! I guess the folks in San Antonio, Del Rio, and Alpine will have the Sunset a little while longer, at least.
Thanks for the info, but I'm still a little confused--I thought 21&22 (Eagle) will still be heading south to San Antonio--so if the Sunset is...
Does anyone know the details about the Sunset's new route (supposedly on KCS through Shreveport, over to Dallas/Ft. Worth, and out to El Paso)?...
I haven't heard anyone mention a road which could be a big player in a merger scenario involving CP (or CN, or however the next round of mergers...
