Caledonia, Laurentia, & Appalachia Railway (CL&AR) No.1 Josephine is rough with the trucks. Here, she tried to dutch drop a tanker, but it didn't quite work out.

ADMX 9020 - EMD SW9 at Tulare, SD por Zach Pumphery Por Flickr: Some of these old switchers have quite a story. A good number of elevator switchers have a similar history, built for a decent sized carrier, passed to a couple more bigger carriers through mergers, and eventually cast off to short lines, grain elevators, or switching operations. This one is a bit of an exception. Even though it looks like a pretty unassuming EMD switcher from the era, it has always been more of an "industrial critter" and belonged so some obscure owners. Built in 4-1959, it has a builder number of 25343, frame number 4427-2, and was built for the Pickering Lumber Corporation and worked out of Standard, California hauling timber. Their last day of operation was on 12-28-1965. Shortly after in 1966, it wound up in Utah on the Tooele Valley Railroad, which was owned by Anaconda Copper. Their mine and smelter operations were the major revenue source, and the railroad began to wither away after the 1972 shutdown of the smelter. Their last revenue train operated on 7-7-1980, and the railroad completely ceased operation on 8-26-1982. By March 1983, the engine had a new owner, Minnesota Corn Products out of Marshall, MN and was still numbered 104. The unit had been retrofitted with roller bearing axles in place of its original plain journals for movement. The engine was used in facilities at Columbus, NE from the 1990's until at least 2011. MCP was acquired by Archer Daniels Midland 2002. ADM moved the engine to this facility within the past decade, and at some point along the way picked up the ADMX 9020 identity. Just looking in the windows you can see the ancient brake stand, so I'd make a cautious assumption that this thing is probably pretty original in configuration.

Handing off the world's worst used tanker car for fuel that would definitely be considered too dangerous for interchange service irl.
Allegheny & Erie 1300 (H-6 Mallet 2-6-6-2) and 1500 (T-1 Texas 2-10-4) on a heavy freight from Andrews to Sylva North Carolina on the Murphy branch of the Allegheny and Erie
Photographed April 27th 1957
Both Locomotives were purchased from the C&O after their retirement and are some of the last remnants of steam in the Appalachian mountains.
A&E 1300 was converted to burn oil after acquisition from the C&O, but was retired in 1973 due to the oil crisis. The locomotive still exists today and is on display at a railroad park outside of Asheville, North Carolina.
A&E 1500 ran until late 1964 when the locomotive derailed outside of Thornton, West Virginia due to a rock slide causing the engine to fall into the river. There were many attempts to raise enough money to rescue the locomotive as it was one of the last of the C&O T-1's unfortunately in 1966 the locomotive was scrapped on site.
Today there is a plaque on US 50 marking the location of the wreck commemorating those who have lost their lives in railroad accidents

Eastbound BNSF Intermodal Train at Floyd, MO by Zach Pumphery Via Flickr: Another snow squall moves through as BNSF Train Z SBDWSP4 13U blasts by the elevators at Floyd on the BNSF Marceline Sub. down Main Track 1 with engineer Scott Krause at the helm once again. I don't remember the last time we had such constant snow around here, but today another inch fell in the KC area, so I took advantage of the conditions. Locomotives: BNSF 5753, BNSF 4165, BNSF 5081, BNSF 7214, BNSF 7294 1-15-24 Floyd, MO
