Fate of Metra E8s?
Posted by fafnir242 on Monday, February 8, 2010 9:22 AM

Does anyone know what happened to the Metra E8s that were used on the California Zephyr when it detoured over the Northwestern during the flood of 1993?  I found on a website that as of March 2006 they were stored in Silvis, IL, but does anyone know if they're still there or have been moved or scrapped?
