bittersweet
Brand new Iowa 517 backs down 9 track with Metra 213 on a Z037 for Barr. Iowa 517 is the first of 3 new GEVOs on the Iowa and they are planned to replace the 4 remaining SD38-2s. As nice as it is to see the Iowa run a first class operation with the best new power, the novelty of new engines will wear off and I'm gonna miss the SD38s. 3rd out is Metra 213, to my knowledge, it is the last blue F40PHM-2 and it is heading to be rebuilt and repainted.
