Photo Search, Need Help!
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, January 14, 2006 5:42 PM
Recently I saw a color photo in a magazine or book of a GN steam engine, waiting on a siding for a passing diesel. The photo was taken in Fergus Falls, MN. I cannot for the life of me remember what book, magazine... ??? I saw the photo???. I thought it might have been in the Diesel Victory mag., but just picked it up, and nope! Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Greg

Check with GNRHS, they might have it.

I'm not quite sure, but I believe that pic appeared in the Model Railroad Planning
2005 magazine. I remember it well, showing an O-1 meeting an NW3 at
Fergus Falls-which I was about to head off to so as to attend last year's
GNRHS convention. Good luck. Check with Kalmbach.

Try Kalmbach's "Modelling Railroads of the 1950's".
