West-Con SW1200RS #1287 - Western Consolidation Cooperative
Title:  West-Con SW1200RS #1287 - Western Consolidation Cooperative
Description:  This enigmatic little switcher was photographed by Eric Berg sometime in March of 2002. So far I have not been able to find a reporting mark for West-Con (Western Consolidation Cooperative) nor an accurate history of the loco. Thanks to Raymond Kennedy (see comment below), the switcher has been identified as CN #1287 built in 10/1957 (serial #A1183) and NOT a rebuilt CP #1287 from the DRS12 class. Thanks Raymond!
