Remarks & Notes

When United States Steel ceased movement of crude ore by rail at their Minntac iron ore mine in northeastern Minnesota they sold off their large fleet of locomotives. This DM&IR train was the largest "hospital" move of these units, mostly EMDs headed for new owner Larry's Truck and Electric.

These are engines that are either already scrapped, are in deadlines, or they're in severe danger of being scrapped. Not everything can be preserved.

Do you ever get the feeling as a model railroader, that you just might be creating something not "prototypical?" Same here.
