QUOTE: Originally posted by edblysard Ok, they are off the ship and on the flats...I sent some photos out to a few folks, hopefully one or two of them can post some of them here...got the ok to do so from our trainmaster. Yes, if they post one with a skinny guy in front of the locomotives, that is me. Sorry about the snapshot quality, couldnt step back any more, unless I wanted to go swiming in the ship channel.[xx(] Note the engineer stands on the left side.... Cant tell you what route they will take, or who is carrying them, thats privledged info I am not a liberity to release, but watch UP and BNSF's websites. If you want a few photos e mail me with an email address I can send them to... Ed

QUOTE: Originally posted by edblysard I will try and find out...so far, we usually transport locomotives on flats in with everything else...about the only dedicated train would be for oversized things, like the really big transformers, or the reactor vessel we sent out last year, and the Windfan trains...
