KBS 309 C420

Name	Type	Comments	Date

T. Man	General	This is an Alco RS11 built in 1959 for the Green Bay Western, it was sold to the KBS in 1993 and fell off a trestle into a stream in 1999 I believe. A tree went right through the radiator when she went down. :-(	1/19/2007 9:50:24 PM

Dal Best	General	I have talked to the engineer running this engine during this wreck. He says he derailed due to ice buildup in the flangway at a highway xing. He was fired for excessive speed. I see him weekly and he is still bitter.	12/18/2012 5:28:15 PM
