This unit is probably long gone now, but perhaps someone remembers an Alco RS2 or 3 painted yellow marked Morrison - Knudsen #802. I saw it in 1980 or 1981 switching equipment at M-K's shops in Boise, ID belching black smoke with every move. There were many remains of other Alco RS units around the outside tracks at the shops. Recently going over my collection of old photos and looking at these forums and online rosters, some of the locomotives and remains were identified which is interesting as I didn't have a clue what they were back then.
I thought it would be interesting to find out the history of this particular locomotive and others that went to Morrison-Knudsen. I modelled this locomotive back then in HO scale.
