Something one doesn't get to see every day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNIAg8XzCQE BTW, the audio is particularly accurate. If two is good-three will be better. Ex D&H RS-3 4068 has been purchased for eventual service. My comment and question is this: The D&H had 130 RS-2's and RS-3's. Can anyone cite a unit that has actually been preserved in a legitimate museum environment ? This is NOT to fault the DL, who put quite a bit of resources into cosmetics on both their locos, i.e., making the hood doors and hatches fit, repairing rust out in the cab sides, etc, etc. DPK |

Add to that the fact that these two are running on some original D&H trackage (18 miles of it) and you've really got something there! Dave Crosby (The dispatcher who's always got soething "cool" going by his window) |
