Remember those K500's?

Back when the ore trains ran on the Monon Sub, you could see some interesting sights when a K500 showed up. The loaded ore trains came off the BNSF and went south on CSX down to the new plant at Reynolds, IN for processing. It looks like the rumors that the operation would start up again are proving to be false, a sad fact for many people. Good paying jobs are hard to come by, both on and off the railroad. As for us old retirees and railfans, it means not seeing an old Grinstein on the point charging through Dyer on a well lit November afternoon.
