BUGX 1258, BUGX 5000, and BUGX 1240
Title:  BUGX 1258, BUGX 5000, and BUGX 1240
Description:  Three more units sit behind the high hoods; two (what I assume) are ex-BJRY switchers, and a MK of some sort that appeared to have been owned by the ICE at one time. I was unaware that DME/ICE had these models at one time.
