UP M-69 |
| Description: |
Union Pacific Railroad Brill M-69 at an unknown location (see comment below, thanks John) on June 2, 1957, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. The slide mount was simply marked: UP M-69 TRESTLE 6/2/57. If anyone recognizes the location, please leave a comment and I will correct this information. Number M-69 was built by Brill in 1930 as Oregon Short Line M-69 (c/n 22866-1) and retired in May 1958. It was a Brill Model 350, weighed 57 tons, was powered by a Hall Scott 300 horsepower gasoline engine driving GE electrical equipment, and seated 70 passengers. It was retired in May 1958 and presumably scrapped. Nice trailing car, sorry, I couldn't accurately read any numbers, so I am relying on the slide mount to tell the truth. |
