What's with tyhe "hole" in the middle and why is it covered? Intersting shot.
 
I couldnt find and employee around, it was on a sunday, some time of Maintenance, if it had dynamic brakes, they were taken off, or just accessing to the diesel, but can change piston from sides, no way of knowing though
 
No problem. New here and can't figure why the comments I wrote didn't show up with the rating. The CAT engine in this unit had either just been removed or was about to be taken out around the time this shot was taken. Before it went completely bad it had a habit of dying evey time you switched directions. (Nice when crossing a busy street at rush hour!) I was one of the last to run her before she totally went down. This unit was shipped out earlier this year and sent to Texas where it's being rebuilt as a Green Goat. Thanks for posting this shot!
 
Glad I caught that one for ya ;-) I'm originally from Cincinnati, My mom worked at proctor and Gamble and was showing me around and I saw the poor ol' unit sittin there. Your CSX coal drag shot is awesome in your gallery, love the Depth.
