Does anyone know if former Monon c-420 513, now MALX 1330 is still in and around Pontiac Illinois? I know it was there as of last spring. I'm planning a trip out that way when the weather breaks to document what i can while i can. While we're on the subject, any other ALCo's of note in the central Illinois are within reach of Pontiac? There's the ex-Erie s2 nearby that I'm aware of, anything else? Thanks!

With a little research i found an Ex-KBS RS-11 in nearby Darrow as well as former Erie Mining RS-11 7205 in Watseka. There is also rumor of Pioneer Industrial's former CNJ RS-3 in Peoria? Can anyone confirm or deny the existence of these locomotives? Thanks again!

The 7205 has moved east to the Morristown & Erie, but I belive all the rest are still there.
