MON BL2 #37 - Monon RR |
| Description: |
Caught idle in a stored string of locos at an unidentified location, this EMD BL2 unit was built in May of 1949 for the Monon RR. This was definitely a transitional body style for EMD as they moved from the E & F car bodies to the multi-directional GP styling. According to the Monon Historical Society webpage, it was sold for scrap in 1969 to P-RSL. |

MON BL2 #30 - Monon RR |
| Description: |
BL2 #30 appears to be waiting for a clear signal on this day before moving its string of freight. According to photographer(?) Jay William, the location is listed on the back as Hammond with a question mark. This may be near downtown Hammond where Erie and Monon had adjacent tracks. The business "Gotto Mathias Co" in the background closed in 1970 but not sure the lcoation. Eric Reinert (see comment below) helped out by correctly identifying the location as Michigan City. Thanks Eric! |

MON BL2 #30 - Monon RR |
| Description: |
One of my favorite "odd duck" engines is this EMD BL2 unit built for the Monon in 1947 caught working a freight consist at College Avenue in Indianapolis. The BL in the model name stood for "Branch Line", indicating that EMD felt the locomotive was best suited for light traffic and frequent switching chores. The car body design makes it unique similar to the uniqueness of the Edsel in the car line. This was a transitional style fromt the E & F unit car body to the multi-directional GP style and should not be overlooked in the evolution of modern locomotive designs. The date in 1960 is approximate. Jay Williams photo credit on the back. |

RDG 2-2-2T - Reading "Black Diamond" Sign |
| Description: |
Although it is a 2-2-2T built by Baldwin in 1889, the RRPA data base doesn't have a listing for a 2-2-2T, hence the listing as 2-4-2T to match other postings as well as the RDG BD listing. Impressive inspection locomotive now housed at the National Museum of Transportation.. |
