Check the size of these trucks. You can really tell how large it is when it passes a 13'6" tractor trailer. Then watch them pass full size pickups on the dirt road. Video was shot at Minntac, at Mountain Iron, MN. 10-2003

The Ontario Southland is putting on a great show switching cars at Guelph Ontario. The throttle response is instantaneous, unlike GE and EMD. The sounds are great. This locomotive is sidelined at this time due to crank shaft failure. It MAY be repaired if funds alow. Keep your fingers crossed ALCO-MLW fans, that this beautiful old girl returns to the rails. 10-03-2005
