The former Glen Monhart units, now at Green Bay. I think the one on the left is ex-D&RGW, the other two ex-Milwaukee. Is that correct? http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?d ... et_ABA.jpg |

I know as of the Summer of 2003, the ex- BAR BL2's were there as well. Anyone know their current status? TJ Gaffney |

These units are owned by Clint Jones. In addition to these units, he also owns four nee-C&NW E8 locomotives (last used by and painted for Metra) and the Mineral Range shortline in Hancock, MI. His reporting marks are MRAX. Various reports over the past 5 years or so state that these units were to be used on a tourist railroad on new right-of-way proposed to run from Deadwood, SD to a proposed resort backed by Kevin Costner. Prior reports stated that the plan was shelved due to concerns over disturbing lands sacred to first-nations peoples. A quick google search yielded no conclusive information. |
