Tom Beckett General Interesting photo, CR SD's stacked up like cordwood!!! A nit pick if I might: CR 6087 was an SD 45, I think former EL. 8/29/2021 4:28:20 AM

David Richerby General It's not wrong and, furthermore, it is necessary. We cannot keep every machine that has ever been built. We have no use for them all, nowhere to keep them all, and we need the steel and other components to make new machines. Also, when you say "whoever IS scrapping these" (my emphasis), you seem to have missed that this photograph was taken in 1984. 10/22/2025 8:21:07 AM
