IC 8733 GP11 |
| Description: |
Monticello Railway Museum's Paducah Rebuild GP11 rests in one of the car barns. I always liked the look of the GP11's with the newer fabricated cabs added during the rebuild, I wish I'd seen these in revenue service, but I was born in 1990 100 miles from the IC. Perfect. |

NS GP59 on Display |
| Description: |
Here is NS's contribution to the 2008 MRYM Railroad Days, a GP59, which is set up long hood forward. This was the first newer diesel I'd been in that was set up for long hood forward running. It was an interesting arrangement. |
