Viewing Album:  The Last of the Chessies+Newton, KS+More!
 
By:Matthew Zisi
Dates:5/17/2019 - 5/19/2019
Album Info:This weekend, I took a trip to Oklahoma. There was a nasty rumor circulating from 2016 that a Chessie System engine was on the Blackwell Northern Gateway Railroad, in South Haven, Kansas. I didn't really believe it, but I was passing through South Haven (a really small town), so I thought I'd check. RUMOR CONFIRMED-IT'S STILL THERE!!! No idea whether it still runs or not, but it is on an active rail line, still in its Chessie colors! Additionally, I got pictures in Newton of trains going past the depot...as well as a shortline WAMX train taking a line that crossed over BNSF tracks. And, while in Oklahoma, I went by the Amtrak station in the morning and got shots there as well. Enjoy the album!

WAMX 4217
Title:  WAMX 4217
Description:  Heard some honking north of where I was, so I looked around until I saw these short line engines crossing the BNSF tracks! I doubled back to their line and got photos of them going over another crossing. 4217 was built for the Southern Pacific in 1969, later taken over by UP.
