Katy by Popular Request on July 21st
The Katy shots I put up last week seem to have attracted the most attention in awhile, so I pulled a few more slides this evening. The quality of some of these shots is not always up to my current standards, but hey, go try and reshoot these today……
First up is a freight southbound from Muskogee to Denison, seen here near Checotah, OK on October 6th in 1978 with a pair of four axle units.
Back on the original Oklahoma City line to Parsons, KS prior to its abandonment, we see yet another F-unit northbound on a cloudy day. F3 #70-A is leading on 3/1/74 near the site of today’s Oklahoma Railroad Museum.
Lastly for tonight is a shot of red FP7 #80-C as it lays over in Oklahoma City a year earlier on June 10th in 1973.
I’ll see what other oldies I can come up with for your viewing pleasure in the near future!
