Sitting forelonely in the Seattle, Washington, docks is Seattle & North Coast Railroad F7A 101, which was seeing little use 1982. Built in October 1950 as Great Northern 274B, with the GN-NP-CB&Q-SP&S merger this engine became Burlington Northern 610. SNCT 101 would go on to work again before the demise of the railroad, and today it is DLMX 274, painted once again in Omaha Orange and Pullman Green. (That bad-ordered UP box car with the bulging door was coupled to this engine for at least eight months, as it was there in May 1983 as well.) |
