Ex- Louisiana & Arkansas crummy 386, repainted & on display along the main drag in Heavener, OK. The KCS main runs just 30 yards behind the caboose.

Welcome back to Tejas Bob. Nice looking cab. As I remember all of KCS's cabs were silver with those funky trucks. I sure miss em.

The newer bay window jobs were stainless steel, and shone in the sun like a new penny.

I can't weigh in on that, but the topic appears to be a good one!
