RDG NS 1067 where the Monon used to run
« on: July 29, 2012, 12:13:12 am »
The Reading heritage locomotive NS 1067 was the second unit on a NS coal train from Princeton to the KU power plant at Dix's Dam, Ky. It crossed the K&I bridge late Saturday afternoon.  The attached photo is on the Louisville end of where the Monon used to run in the good old days.

This is probably the first "Bee Line Service" locomotive on the K&I.  The lettering on the cab is "EMD Class SD70ACe / RDG RSE - 14 - 4300 HP".  Here's a link:
