MJRX 849 - Kansas City, MO - 9/17/10 |
| Description: |
Tucked away in a small yard in Kansas City, Missouri, is an eclectic collection of power awaiting rebuilding. Seen here is MJRX (Railway Service Contractors) B30-7 849 (ex-Dakota Short Line 849, originally Southern Pacific 7849). Behind it is a primered switcher that has been rebuilt extensively, and whose heritage and model I could not determine. MJRX SD40 9003 is ex-UTAH 9003, ex-CSXT 8371, nee-C&O 7512, MPEX 752 (peaking out in the rear) is also now owned by MJRX but has yet to be so marked, and is the former Utah Railway 9011, ex-CSXT 8398, ex-WM 7547, nee-WM 7447. |

MJRX 849 - Kansas City, MO - 9/17/10 |
| Description: |
Railway Service Contractors (MJRX) B30-7 849, seen here in Kansas City, Missouri, on September 17, 2010, rolled out of General Electrics Erie (PA) factory in March 1979 as Southern Pacific 7849. After the Union Pacific absorbed the SP, 7849 was retired on 12/26/01. In July 2002 the UP sold this engine to G&I Leasing (Nampa, ID), who resold it to Dakota Southern (who renumbered it 849), which subsequently unloaded it to Railway Service Contractors on a date unknown. Curiously, SP 7849 does not show up on any lists as having been repainted in the ill-fated SPSF "Kodachrome" scheme. |
