Taken in 2003 and probably gone now. Said to be ex-CP (Milwaukee?). http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?j ... X1206a.jpg |

Bob: Seeing this photo makes me wonder, have any "as-built" cow and calf units (both units) been saved in any museums? Les |

Western Maryland BL-2 #81 and her calf WM138T, are together at the B&OMuseum in Baltimore. 138T was a former S2. They were not mated at birth, but worked together in the Hagerstown yard for many years. |

> 138T was a former S2 Actually, 138T was built using the frame from WM 102, the very first diesel locomotive on the Western Maryland, an S1. |

Actually it is a TR-6, 8 clyinder, ex Oliver Mining. Yes it is scrapped. I have it's 2 sisters sitting out back. Better looking but being used for parts. They may be turned into slugs in the upcoming months. No one wants B-units anymore. |
