| For those that never witnessed a pair of Chessie GP40-2's on the Brunswick turntable, this shots for you! In 1989, B&O 4303 and C&O 4286 were nose to nose as they prepared to "take a spin". Not apparent in the photo, but definitely apparent while there, were numerous other GP's being worked on inside the roundhouse. Photo by Kevin Burkholder |
