GB&W train 2 is making its morning run across western Wisconsin with 318, 311, 312 and 117 cars. Sights like this made the GB&W a favorite of mine with clean well maintained Alco's moving right along with big trains. While I didn't have a lot of luck with my hometown SOO's RS27's I more than made up for it with the GB&W's four unit fleet of stubby nosed beasts. A lot of fans seemed to think the RS27 was not what you would call good looking but they seemed all business to me and I really liked the look. They say there's no accounting for taste:). September 21, 1979. A rescan.
