    Ran into this while doing errands today.

    The F59 is a much more appropriate platform than the MP36 would have been, but I think it would be awesomer to have on a F40PH or one of the SD70MACHs....

    If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, items saved in our library or the ongoing development of our TSRE Fork, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

    That has vague echos of the Crandall cab. All it needs is a gong on the nose!

      I'm not familiar with the area. Is this the right of way originally used by the North Western?

        Yes, that's at MP37 (Fox River Grove) on the CNW Harvard Sub.

          I know the F40's are off the MILW-W now; I kind of miss them already. See a lot of the ex Amtrak F59PH1''s, rarely the F59PH3's, but mostly the SD70's. Love the horns on the SD70's - they put the other "fluffy" horns on Metra to shame
