The 92 has been pulled out for showcase weekend at the Illinois Railway Museum... and with this evenings storm, she is freshly washed... a little lightning to brighten the sky.
The 92, looking good in her Super Fleet paint, sits on the west wye at IRM.
ATSF 92 and WC 7525 sit outside of the IRM depot.
Out of Belen heading east, FP45 92 with Geometry Support Car 86 and Track Geometry Car 85 are off on the days inspection run.
It was always a pleasure to see one of these as the lead unit. FP45's were fairly frequent visitors here at this time, but they were often not the lead locomotive.

Santa Fe FP45 92 and IC 201 sit on display at IRM. Hopefully the 92 will be on of the next engines to get repainted at IRM, it is really starting to show its age.
A rare look at the F45 at the IRM in March. Usually not open for the winter opened for one day due to an event in Chicago. A steamer, RSD15 or Alligator, and a UP Gas turbine stand next to the SF ... (more)
Lined up and ready to be viewed at IRM.
I would like to she her repainted.
