Title:  SLRG 101 leads the Graffiti (er, Polar) Express
Description:  Bit of a downer that Iowa Pacific couldn't have at least washed off the two ex-NJT coaches before deadheading this consist to Middleton. At least the 101 looks good and had a cool sounding M5 horn.

SLRG 101
Title:  SLRG 101
Description:  We moved onto Kokomo and by total suprise, ITM had their Polar Bear Express Train out on the mainline. Recently, the Indiana Transportation Museum relocated from Noblesville to Logansport after the town of Noblesville kicked them out. Equipment will soon start slowly moving to Logansport. But for the meantime, for the Christmas Season, Iowa Pacific has leased SLRG 101 (ex-IC 101) to ITM to use on their Polar Bear Express train between Kokomo and Logansport. The train will run next week then it will be done for the season after running for most of the weekends in December. I was wanting to catch it after not being able to get down to see it any of the weekends it was doing trips. The only reason it is out on the mainline now is because a grain train must have arrived from NS today to Kokomo Grain where the train was being kept while it was not running. Pretty neat to see it!

Description:  Would have been neat to have seen the whole set when CN still ran it for their business train. Thats been out of service now for almost 6 years. Glad to see it though here! Hopefully ITM can get their equipment all moved and we will continue to see things such as this.

Description:  One final shot of The Polar Bear Express before going to The Train Exchange to get Ethans engine. We would close the evening out with this final train. Aunt Susie and I would stay in the Holiday Inn in Logansport then pick up Nick and Ethan early the next morning heading to Ossian. Nine trains recorded today. Not too good, not too bad, but some nice catches. Hope for the same tomorrow!

Mystery Train - SLRG E9A 101 - San Luis Rio Grande
Title:  Mystery Train - SLRG E9A 101 - San Luis Rio Grande
Description:  Here is another serendipity find while driving through Kokomo, IN. This "Mystery Train" was parked on a long siding in a business/residential neighborhood when we saw it. After researching it, the train belonged to the former San Luis & Rio Grande RR which had financially collapsed in 2019. It was here as one of the last spots it ran tourist trains.

SLRG E9A #101 - San Luis Rio Grande
Title:  SLRG E9A #101 - San Luis Rio Grande
Description:  While under the Iowa Pacific control (San Luis Rio Grande parent company), the loco wore the Illinois Central "Death Star" paint scheme that IC had painted when it owned the loco in the late 1990's. This is a sharp looking paint scheme. The pedigree is somewhat intricate. Nee-CBQ E8A 9977 > BN E8A 9977 > BN E9AM 9904 > IC E9A 101 > SLRG E9A 101 > last owner is Aberdeen, Carolina & Western (ACWR) E8A #101.
