  1. I miss this location.

  2. Ditto

  3. CN 2191 was rebuilt and repainted at NRE Silvis, IL following a wreck with WSOR in Wisconsin in 2014. Surprised that CN chose to rebuild and not retire the locomotive as it was severely damaged, with a bent frame. I have some great shots of 2191 post rebuild at Mac Yrd.
