LSIX SW1 #01 - ADM Transportation
Title:  LSIX SW1 #01 - ADM Transportation
Description:  Caught outside the ADM grain elevator in Tipton, IN, is this SW1 unit, LSIX #01. Originally built as St Joseph Terminal, SJT #1, by EMD in February of 1950, this plugger is still working the rails more than 60 years later. On the nose is the label "Atom Powered" - not sure what that means but is an interesting feature on the loco. An unknown Hoosier rail fan caught this sight.

AMTK SW1 #744
Title:  AMTK SW1 #744
Description:  Finally tracked down info on this relatively obscure little switcher. It was originally built for PRR as #9145. Absorbed by Penn Central as #8575, it then became first Amtrak #257 and finally as seen in this photo by Forrest Trittenbach as #744. After all of that merging and converging, it was finally retired July 1986 at Wilmington DE. Behind it sits another obscure Conrail unit #6867. Looks to be an RSD-12 but can't find it listed anywhere.
