Does anyone have photo's of these cars. Could someone post them if you do? I would do it myself but I live in Missouri and have no way of getting there.

Thanks,
John Caples

I went there a few months ago, the flatcars that used to be there are gone. And couldn't find that yellow locomotive you guys where talking about, that's probably gone too. When I first went there, early 2011 those flat cars were chillin and looked like it would be a hell of job to get rid of, but I guess they did it! I snapped photos but later deleted..

Here's a photo of a 1907 Bethlehem Steel track switch, not sure if it's still there..

Going back sometime soon to check things out, before construction starts. I'll add some photos.
