Just got word that TCW 4300 is in Bloomington at the CAT location off of 35W, @ 94th st. I dont want to guess but is she there for service maybe??? she is a CAT powered unit but I did not think they would have the equipment to service the locomotives there, Mike or Joe any info as I would think the PGR ran the unit up there. In any event may be neat to shoot her in a new location. |

The unit is there for service. I don't know what exactly is being done to it though. A TCW crew brought it to at least Nesbitt. |

Should be a CAT 3516 engine. The Generation II locomotive lettered for TCW uses the road number of 3516, to "advertise" the engine used. Here is a link to an old article that mentions about the GP20Cs when they were built for BN http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m ... ai_8973523 |

Well after what a few weeks the 4300 has left CAT in Bloomington, should be back on her home rails by now. |
