LS&I Sampler
A good cross-section of the Lake Superior & Ishpeming’s mid-1980’s roster is shown in this view at the Eagle Mills Shops. On the left, in the late 1970’s green paint scheme, is RSD12 1802, purchased new from Alco in 1956. In the center is RSD15 2403, acquired from the Santa Fe in the mid-1970’s, where it plied the rails of its system, including Cajon Pass, as AT&SF 744. To the right, in sparkling new red paint, is U23C 2301, purchased new from GE in 1968.
