    That's very interesting. It's not clear what will happen at the end of the temporary period but that could turn into a nice oppurtunity for the new RI.

    They do have great looking equipment. Here's a couple of shots from where I caught the unit pictured in the article in Sumner MS in July 2022

    Well the Rock may be running it, but it's an old Santa Fe branch.

    I hope their stay is a safe one. Is there any funding being provided, to help make the physical plant a bit better?

    Wow, scary to read that emergency order from FRA... Hopefully Rock can keep them running straight.
