KGBW 49 with its headlight back in place but much faded from its 2006 repaint
Title:  KGBW 49 with its headlight back in place but much faded from its 2006 repaint
Description:  This Consolidation is the only surviving example of Green Bay & Western system steam power. That railroad became better known among railfans in the diesel era for exclusively rostering ALCo units up until its merger with Wisconsin Central LTD in the early '90s, even after the builder ceased to exist and parts became hard to come by.
