    From the Regoinal/Short Lines group on Yahoo! comes the news that IAIS M420s 801, 802 and 803 are off the roster and will be going to Southern RR of New Jersey to be used on rock train service.

    ALso, the SD38-2s leased from LLPX are staying on for a while, as a long-term lease has been signed.

    Bob-

    What is an "SD30-2?" Can you direct me to a site for photos? This has me curious!

    Oops! That makes sense. I believe someone bashed up an SD30-2 once. In RMC years ago. Might have been an interesting engine to see it actually built!

    :D

    Hi Guy's
    Checkout this website for more info about Iowa Interstate EMD SD38-2's.
    www.iaisrailfans.org
    Two units are now painted in full IAIS livery.

    Slight variation with the Yellow painted ends.
    I love this railroad!!
    Anyone else here with this interest?
