Not sure what these were used for back in the day. They stood right a 7 feet tall. Had these flat metal plates on top. Tis are is just East of the diamond in Selma... new or fairly new grain business seen on the left here. On the right of these concrete pillings, were old rails and switches, dug up when NS cleaned this area out recently. |

new slug... |
Description: |
As you can see on the engineers pilot, there is a place for the operator to stand while operating. There is a small window so they can see to the other side of the locomotive. There is of course, the front windshield, but no side ones, least on this side. Appears to be a GP38 - GP40? Has the twin cooling fans, but a GP40 exhaust stack, yet missing the high filter box behind the cab, seen in 38's. Maybe a mix of these two? |
