IAIS 503 - GE ES44AC
Title:  IAIS 503 - GE ES44AC
Description:  These are neat looking engines. I'd go for one of the old frog eyed GP10s they used to roster, but it sure is cool to see a smaller railroad such as this doing well enough to afford brand new power.

IAIS 512 - Ex-CSX GEVO
Title:  IAIS 512 - Ex-CSX GEVO
Description:  Here's the newest addition of IAIS's roster at Mid-America Car & Locomotive shortly after the KCS Switcher cut away from them. This is ex-CSX 950 and was nearly complete at GE in Erie, PA when CSX delayed their order for 50 ES44AC's due to the economic downturn (or in this case, the economic firey tailspin). 512 gets IAIS paint, but 513 gets a Rock Island Heritage Scheme.

IAIS 513 - RI Heritage Locomotive
Title:  IAIS 513 - RI Heritage Locomotive
Description:  The New Iowa Interstate Railroad Rock Island Heritage Locomotive has been released from Mid-America Car & Locomotive and has been added to the consist of DME Train 271-20 and will head to its new home rails via ex-Rock Island trackage. At this point they were beginning to make their way to the west end of the yard before heading back to their outbound train on the east end. Kudos to the IAIS for this. What an awesome looking locomotive. By far the best looking wide-nosed GE since the Santa Fe Warbonnets were new. Can you smell what the ROCK is cookin'?

Southbound KCS Loaded Grain Train
Title:  Southbound KCS Loaded Grain Train
Description:  A rare consist here, a warbonnet Dash-9 leads a pair of Southern Belles lead a grain train from the BNSF at Council Bluffs, IA into KCS Knoche Yard in Kansas City. I've never seen a warbonnet lead a grain train on the KCS, and it's kind of cool to see the two paint schemes Mike Haverty brought back from the dead at the ATSF and KCS in the same consist.

KCS 4688 - Diesel Prime Mover Runaway
Title:  KCS 4688 - Diesel Prime Mover Runaway
Description:  KCS 4688 had enough this morning and its prime mover apparently decided to "run away". You could see the smoke from 10 miles away. KCPD and KCFD responded to KCS Knoche Yard this morning and watched the 4688 burn herself out. It made one awful noise when it seized up and flamed out.
