I really enjoyed the video! Awesome job! I’ve heard rumors that the I&O was forced to take the GE wide body’s because a few of the SD 40’s didn’t meet emission standards. Also the 3488 was put in storage because it needs a complete radiator rebuild. That is my favorite engine on the property. As an engineer for the I&O the 3488 was my favorite to operate as well.
IORY 3222 still operates in Springfield, OH as some of the new units can’t handle the rough track and grades up here. We have some of the oldest tracks in their system up here in Springfield. You can come up this way and still see them operate. I work at the Lumber Yard they serve up here. We should be getting 2 cars on Monday
What a Huge disappointment replacing their awesome EMD Engines with JUNKYARD POS GE Engines. This Company is doing the same thing CN CP and UP everything the Buy up they destroy it. The Employees suffer and so does motivate power these New days are NOT for Me let go back to the Good Ole Days. When companies cared about the employees and Yeah believe it or Not the company.

Thank you. I have loved I & O from its beginning. You gave me some background on the changes and that helps a lot.
You are so welcome
Great video and thanks for sharing. Dave

Do you get new cars every Monday?
And is there a time you normally do?
@@LivingWRailfan they run as needed, but they are running tomorrow. We have about two or three cars sitting in the interchange yard off of Warder St
@@PennsylvaniaCentralDepot ah I see
I might come up Monday
I saw 3527 and 3542 today.
Nice!
Would 2102 or 2100 be special? I have a few photos of them.
They’re supposed to be keeping those and the other GP38-2s for locals/switching
@@BmdZero Cool, hope to see some more.
Is I&O owned by the same people as L&D Louisiana and Delta? Same paint scheme
Yes. Genesee & Wyoming
