T. Man	General	Yes, the 416 days are numbered. I was Homewood IL the next day and she was already in the deadline. Number boards already taken off. :-(	10/27/2007 12:26:18 AM

Robby Gragg	General	Wow, that is too bad. It makes no sense CN is getting rid of so many DM&IR engines since they haven't put the special brakes the DM&IR used on any of its own engines. The special brakes are required to pull ore trains. The DM&IR is pretty short of power.	10/28/2007 6:33:52 PM

T. Man	General	Please keep posting pics of the deadline at Homewood. Its good to at least know what is changing over there once in a while. Thanks.	11/6/2007 11:23:36 AM

Robby Gragg	General	Yeah, its actually kinda sad photographing this stuff knowing what is probably going to happen.	11/7/2007 5:18:57 PM

T. Man	General	Yes I completely agree, when I was there about a month ago and saw the 7504, 7637, and the 3005 in the Dead line. It was really depressing. Especially when I saw the 7637 pulling a train back in December wide open. I felt like I was in a museum for a moment except none of these locomotives are safe.	11/11/2007 10:12:16 PM

Robby Gragg	General	At least WC 7495 and 7525 are at museums!	11/12/2007 3:29:13 PM

T. Man	General	Yes that is very true.	11/15/2007 10:55:55 AM
