Deadline

What is on the Deadline these days or OOS

Took a trip over there yesterday to find the 155, 270 and 261 sidelined. The 155 has stacks capped off with duct tape and plastic bags and the 261 and 270 apparently are awaiting new (used) D77 traction motors and trucks from the GP10, which were in the yard. Any of the NYA guys know the status so far of the truck/trac. motor swapping?

Traction motors from the GP10, the one on the right being the bad one:

what was the point of putting them on pallets if they would obviously break them? especially since there are deposits on CHEP pallets

traction motors 2 pallets 0

What is wrong with the 155 and how long out of service?

it don't look so good for nya right now how is 268-271 holding up

just seen 271 at pine aire

For a mechanical force which (up to recently that is) would rather let the traction motors burn out than add grease to the gear cases, do you think they're worried about a couple of pallets???

Waiting for my razor blades marked "Produced from a piece of Crap"

201 is still sitting at Gershow, although she's off the tracks (she has no trucks left) and resting on the fuel tank.

She's starting to resemble the turkey carcass at the end of Thanksgiving dinner.

Any insiders got any pics?
