    Wish I had been able to do more than get this one grab shot.

    Sure did Jim. And the rear only has one number board with a number. The rear number board on the conductores side looked like a rusty piece of metal. It finally left town today for Roseville. Any recent shots of the 5503 that you know of?

    Haven't seen any in a long time. It spends most of its time in TX.

    I thought I'd share my shot of the D&RGW 5507 leaving town on April 9th. Sad to see it go, since I wasn't able to shoot a bunch of digital images of it. We used it mu'ed with a SW1500 for a couple of moves, what a pair that made.

    Enjoy and I hope some one else can get some shots of it before the yellow patch is applied.

    That's a good question! I honestly have never seen a tracer for this, but it would be neat to see!

    the siding at Denis. I wish the borg was not in the shot. It is a lease, as this shot is well before 9-11-96.

    If anybody is interested, I posted an entire album of detail pictures for DRGW 3129, one of two GP40-2 units they had with angled blower ducts. I have a model of this unit in progress, hence all the detail pics. If anyone is so inclined, the easiest way to retrieve the pictures is to go to Webshots and type in DRGW 3129. (Anyone, except Darren of course! :D :D :D)
