Title: |
Katy grain |
Description: |
In the summer of 1988 business allowed me to make my third annual "last chance to shoot Katy" trip; this time I went to central Texas, where I found this train, pulling grain south at Elgin Tx, a point on the MKT main due east of Austin. The lead unit is one of the former Kennecott GP39-2s. It was about this time my companion told me I was standing on a fire ant mound- but that's another story. |

MKT GP39-2 384 |
Description: |
Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad (reporting mark MKT) GP39-2 384 at Bensenville, Illinois on April 21, 1985, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Originally built in January 1977 for Kennecott Copper as KCC 783 (c/n 766028-5), it was equipped with a high visibility cab (26 inches higher that the normal cab), the extra 26 inches was removed by National Railway Equipment, resulting in a cab that was then too low. A four inch hump was added to allow clearance to open the cab interior electrical cabinet doors. The MKT acquired KCC's nine modified GP39-2's in 1984, the MKT was acquired by the UP, and MKT 384 became UP 2354 and, in June 2001, became UP 1204. |

High priority |
Description: |
MKT was trying to make a dent in the KC-Texas intermodal market using short, fast trains. This was their daily effort, which I caught as a grab shot along US 169. He was moving pretty fast, judging by the blur on the first unit. The leader is one of the ex Kennecott Copper GP 39's. |
