Former SP #1 NG diesel-where is she now?
| June 12, 2018 08:39AM |
Quick post as I am pressed for time, but does anyone know where the former SPNG diesel #1 is currently located?
I visited her in the mining town of Cananea, Mexico around 2010 and took a few pics and posted them back then. The locomotive had a few broken windows, but appeared complete and intact at the time. Looking at the current Google Earth imagery, she seems to have been moved sometime after the lower image was taken in 2011. The imagery of the area is poor, but scanning the immediate area (the industrial compound is huge), I could not locate the locomotive. So the question is, does anyone know where where is she now?
