ELS 501 |
Description: |
A northbound E&LS train parked on former MILW rails at Hwy. P at Beaver, WI on 20 Sep. '14. Train had two locomotives, ELS 501 and ILSX 1338. There used to be a siding here and a large, old foundation is partially visible on the right. It might be the remains of one of two potato warehouses built in the early 1900s. The Beaver depot was closed in 1931 and was razed in 1952, not sure which side of the tracks it was on or which side of Hwy. P. |

PPCX 800239 |
Description: |
PPCX 800239, formerly AMTK 3222 'Palm Beach', formerly SCL 6602, formerly SAL 15, spotted along the southeast side of the former C&NW depot at Green Bay, WI on 22 Sep. '14. The 6 bedroom lounge car was built by American Car and Foundry Corp. in 1949 and ran on SAL/SCL between NY and FL for many years. AMTK spent $150,000 on repairs and remodeling after a wreck in 1974, but discontinued it from service in 1977. It was purchased from Amtrak by a private owner in 1978. He reconfigured the interior to 5 bedrooms, bar-lounge, and kitchenette. The restoration of the sleeper-lounge car was done well enough that it qualified to be pulled by AMTK trains. Not sure how long he owned it or who owns it now. |
