MCRY 1256 heading for some R&R in the shed |
| Description: |
After pulling the last train ride of the day, Mid-Continent's current primary motive power heads back across the road+to the engine shed. This switcher locomotive is a B-L-H/Whitcomb RS-4-TC-1A. From what I've been told it used to be in service at the nearby Badger Army Ammunition Plant. |

A little shed with a station sign and a couple of buildings near the County Highway PF crossing are all that remain to mark the location of an early 20th-century mining boomtown. |

MCRY 1256 stands ready to take the first train of the day |
| Description: |
The somewhat incongrous combo of mid-century diesel switchers hauling early 20th century varnish has ruled at Mid-Continent since the steam locomotives all went out of service. That should change in the near future with the significant progress on #2, and a few more years down the road with 1385. 2024 edit: That statement didn't age well, nearly nine years on from this photo No. 2 is in Orgeon while 1385 is still sl...ow...ly being pieced back together at Spec Machine. |
