Title: |
Cadillacs Through Sellers Road Wig-Wag |
Description: |
The 4368 was in the process of changing out of its "black dip" scheme, an aborted attempt to repaint "bloody nose" scheme back into SP's "black widow", before it'd finally wear its short-lived "big cheese" scheme. |

Title: |
T-Minus 9 Months Left For This Classic Railroad |
Description: |
Active wig wag, two cadillacs, full SP light package, but the POTB had only about 9 more months before the big storm would permanently decomisson the POTB railroad in early December. The 4368 had been running around in a rather ugly aborted attempt to repaint it back into SP's Black Widow colors for much of its life on the POTB, but around early 2007 it was returned to primer as seen here and then repainted into a unique POTB scheme that would last only months before the lines end. Both locomotives have since been scrapped, and the wig-wag removed but preserved only yards away from its original home. All POTB locomotives were GP and SD9s. The 4368 and 4414 were the oldest POTB locomotives on roster, being transfered to the Port in 1986, with only the 4381 arriving earlier but it was wrecked in 1999. The rest of the SP fleet and the 101 were transfered around 1993, and the BN fleet around 2002. (Somewhat edited and straightened version of a photo I've already uploaded.) |
