CMPA 3 @ North Vernon, IN
Madison Railroad 3 tugs a cut of hoppers across their own railroad after retrieving them from CSX. The 3, an EMD SW1500, was built in May of 1970 for the TP&W before finding its way to NASA. Still wearing the paint it donned to shuffle cars around Cape Canaveral, this switcher can be found occasionally on Madison Railroad trains. Also of note, the tilt and CPL signals in North Vernon met their maker earlier this year.
