June 5, 1986: Kyle RR ex- SD&AE GP20s 103 & 104 EB between Bethune and Burlington Colo. on the ex- Rock Island main line. Also Kyle GP40 3111 w/ tie train west of Bethune.
Love the old gons with plain bearings. Seems this region was slow to ditch plain bearings: just two counties over and nine years later I saw my first and last "wild" plain-bearinged car, a bulkhead flat.
Awesome look back at this neat railroad!
