Remarks & Notes 
Role Reversal
Old wheels ranging in size from 36 inch to 28 inch diameters earn their last revenue miles by riding atop a freight car instead of underneath it head for the scrap / salvage facility of Progress Rail Services near Albertville, Alabama where they will be broken down and prepared for recycling.
