Muskingum Electric RR

[ben13]

Does anyone know if Muskingum Electric still runs in Ohio?

Also does anyone know of good websites on GE electric locomotives from the 1960s and 1970s?

It shut down in late 2001. I recall writing the news story on it for the magazine.

In addition to Mark's reply I can tell you from personal observation that much of the track is washed out bringing about the debate as to whether the locomotives or rolling stock still there will go out in pieces. It would possibly cost more to get the track usable than the sale value of the engines, assuming someone would even want them. Much of the overhead wire is gone.
