Remarks & Notes

It sure looks like a GP30
Burlington Northern train 4 curves out of Rochelle, Illinois, on the morning of April 6, 1991. Still looking like a GP30 as EMD intended when built in February 1963, only it was built as Cotton Belt No. 5007, and rebuilt by Morrison-Knudsen into BN GP39M No. 2803. Regardless, it still sure looks good.

The flatlands of the Great Plains make for some great railroad action.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
