I'm sorry- I had a hard time following the "flue extension" part of this and what loco it applies to. I've often wondered about the status of these locomotives... > 1286 has had the form 4 calculations and > needs a flue job So this loco has had flues removed, all visual, NDT and metallurgy done, Form 4 worked up and is just awaiting re-installation of flues, hydrostatic tests and the usual systems and debugging work and FRA inspections ? > 1238 needs complete part 230 work, but it's > not expected to take too long consider the > shape she's in. And this loco is not yet stripped for inspection, etc. ? How many folks work on these locomotives - is it a handful of guys or a big organization, etc ? staybolt@bellsouth.net |

Does anyone know the length and type of the turntable offered at Atlanta by NS? Also the one at the doomed roundhouse at Altoona, Wisconsin? ryarger@rypn.org |
