New KYLE Power Incoming
"Soooo... ya know how we were recently talking about the KYLE picking up some Dash-9s?" This is what I texted Lucas McIntyre after stumbling upon today's MKSTP with a quartet of ex-KCS, exx-BNSF C44-9Ws in tow behind the on-line power. Some messaging went around from here, and we're pretty sure that these are indeed headed for the KYLE. As to what they replace is the big question now.
When I shot this, I was on my way to Dan Munson's place, saw this to the south from I-70, and IMMEDIATELY changed course to shoot it up the road at Midland. This is on UP's Kansas Sub, just (railroad-) west of Lawrence.
For clarification, the Dash 9s are the KCS 4457, 4465, 4447, and 4423. UP 1425 and BNSF 6359 were powering the train.
