I had the terrible mis-fortune of seeing 6 RSD-15's be scrapped in Green Bay, WI about 5 yrs ago. They had been owned by Wisc. Central; aquired in the Green Bay & Western / Fox River Valley RR (FRVR) merger. They were former Lake Superior and Ishpeming (anybody ever been to Ishpeming?) nee former Santa Fe (I think.) They were bought by the FRVR as extra power for the Green Bay to Milwaukee trains. They turned out to be fairly unreliable and were parked after no-too-many trips to Milwaukee. The WC had them scrapped at the North Green Bay roundhouse (former C&NW facility.) Later, they scrapped most of the facility itself. Gotta love those RR bean-counters.
