A rail buff group has been harvesting long-abandoned rails at the former Kingsbury Ordnance Plant, IN. Click on the link below and then search for the word "Kingsbury" in the text.

I have been looking for any information that I can on KOP and its been tough so far. I can see the tracks that are still there, and the roadbeds of some of the removed track, but since it was just taken off of the list of top secret facilities in 2001 I can not find any pictures of it during operation (1941-1959) i have found a website containing all of the diesel locomotives and their numbers that operated there, but no pictures of them. Any help would be much appreciated.

Let me know the numbers of the locomotives that were there and I'll see what I can turn up.
