Re: Bandit in Ohio
Who does that belong to and any idea where it is heading?
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

Re: Bandit in Ohio
It's a Soo Line ex-Milwaukee GP40 and it's heading on eastbound ethanol train K644 to an ethanol plant to the east. Should be heading back west in a few days.AARR wrote:Who does that belong to and any idea where it is heading?

Re: Bandit in Ohio
Looks like all the Milwaukee Road lettering weathered off with the "bandit" patches.

Re: Bandit in Ohio
Most all the Bandit paint jobs remaining look like this, but perhaps not quite this bad. I wouldn't think CP would want to send this Soo unit out and about where it could be seen. Working local and yard jobs is one thing.conrailman75 wrote:Looks like all the Milwaukee Road lettering weathered off with the "bandit" patches.
Re: Bandit in Ohio
CP (let alone most Class I's) can and will send any power anywhere at any time. Nature of the railroad. When you need power for a train, it doesn't matter what an engine looks like.Bob M. wrote:Most all the Bandit paint jobs remaining look like this, but perhaps not quite this bad.
