guess the LOCO game...

[kamran]

you won the game
next time i will come with better

 

[kamran]

here is other one

 

[wridenour]

Looks like the DC metro during rush hour...minus the armed gunmen..

 

[NSWGR_46Class]

That photo was taken early this morning its the Melbourne Cup Express running Sydney-Melbourne to pick up the slack due to the Qantas lock out

 

[wilh]

Umm, Kamran, it should be Bearcat245's turn as he got your picture correct the first time.

 

[kamran]

no one gives the right answer but i think its really difficult to answer this as the locomotive is almost hidden and that locomotive is only used in our country though it is made by general motors in late 70's
i think i should take my question back and put the one that is well known guy

The EMD 8 Export Model style of Loco ended up all over the world - including at least 6 diffrent style in Australia - The T series for Vic Rail and the 49 Class here in NSW are some examples

 

[JackieG]

Model: GP38-2
Built: 6/1977 as CR 8180
Use: Yes; It is stored but on the active NS roster

On the nose! I rode that locomotive around a yard because my dad knew the engineneer.

 

[wilh]

Whose turn is it exactly? Is it ptrainman's or bearcat245's turn as they each got a pic correct but....

 

[ptrainman]

It is supposed to be mine since I answered Jackies question right and it was ahead of all these others so here is mine.

SD40-2

it has 2 4 axled trucks
My guess is the GP59? Or the GP49.

 

[SantaFebuff]

It's an Norfolk Southern EMD GP38-3.

Cheers,
Joshua

 

[wilh]

It is a NS GP38-3 with it's numbers cleverly edited out.
It was rebuilt from a GP50.
It was rebuilt sometime between 2004 and 2007.
37 were rebuilt.




....but if the game was going by the rules it would be ptrainman's turn, of which I can see it is. (This statement is redundant).

 

[ptrainman]

Wilh you are right. Your turn.


Paul

 

[wilh]

Alright, haven't done this in a while but here it goes.

What is it?
Who owned it?
What is the wheel arrangement?
How many were there?
When was it built?
Where was it built?
Who built it?
How many exist still and where?
What was the nickname given to the rather rotund engines?

(In the past, I usually went for difficulty or quantity, guess which this one is)

 

[drrt4]

wow, long list there. xD

I think its a 2-8-2.

Keep the guesses rolln'. DR:wave:

 

[NewSouth41]

i'd say 2-10-2

 

[wilh]

Both engine configs are incorrect, as drrt4 said keep on guessing.
