  • Lots and lots of locomotives in LTEX's Lordstown location. Notable here are a few BC Rail/CN C40-8Ws, a quintet of QNS&L locomotives, an MMA U-boat, and more class 1 units than you can shake a stick at.

    Great video :) at 7:07 I spy former Pan Am Railways engines
    MEC 619 SD40M-2.
    MEC 604 SD40-2
    MEC 600 SD40-2
    MEC 606 SD40-2 Snoot nose.
    For those curious Pan Am sold the following MEC locos to LTEX back when they were still here.
    MEC 613
    MEC 610
    MEC 608
    MEC 617
    MEC 618
    MEC 619
    MEC 600

    This company has enough locomotives to rebuild and lease out to any railroad that needs them :D

    Thank you for the video, I'm jealous I wish I owned those localmotives, if I only could would win the jackpot lottery. I would buy old localmotive engine's and have a nice collection of fixed up engine's and a few cars to go with it.
    Thank you again for the video.

      There are plenty of them. I think there's one at 0:50, on the track behind the row of NS switchers. Southern belle switcher at 1:35. Looks like a row of five or six in southern belle paint in the background, above-right of centre at 2:39. Two grey road locomotives in the centre of the frame at 3:04 (same pair visible at 2:39). Three in southern belle at 3:46 and another one full-frame at 6:24 (also seen a few other times, from farther away). Grey one at 10:12.

    Are they all headed for scrap? I would assume those 4 axle GP-38-2's rebuilt would be in high demand since 4 axle's are no longer manufactured.

    i was looking at this place on google maps the other day, and noticed there is another place with engines pretty nearby (mcdonald) that youd have to use a drone to see them. what really interested me was what look to be BN paint EMD F or E units.

    Why would the Tankers and Coal Car come here instead of having them Scrapped wherever they were sent from ? Locomotives are a Different Category. 👍

      Only for the somewhat useless Dash-8s. Every other locomotive seen is ready to be leased to shortlines and such.

    Sorry if this is a noob question, but does LTEX buy ex locomotives? I see so many ex UP's, CSX, CP's, also why does a locomotive become ex company?

    • @HannibalXoner
      @HannibalXoner Рік тому +1

      essencially LTEX buys the locomotives that the big companies don't want anymore, then sell, lease, part out, or scrap them.

    Wish someone would save those 2 ex SP tunnel motors, not to mention the 1 SP tunnel motor still in original SP paint. Those were some incredible engines EMD built. Sad to see all those EMD SD-40, 50 and the SW1500's just sitting there. Sure don't mind seeing the newer GE's rotting. Junk locomotives.

    Maybe more locos here, than anyplace in the country? Sad to see that all these are out of work. Thanks to the economy and PSR. Shows maybe that RR's over- bought locos.
