A dinosaur on the BNSF 6191. One wonders how these units (although reduced to yard service have survived so long?

Ron Moraca	General	Those old locos don't have ready-made parts when something breaks or wears out, either. A retired train repairman (BN) I know said more often than not, for an older locomotive (GP/SD7-26), they had to remanufacture the part(s) or cannabalize other same-era locos already retired for what they needed.	12/20/2004 12:44:42 AM
