Description
The Norfolk Southern in downtown Des Moines. About a quarter mile west of here (left out of the picture these rails end at a grade crossing. Beyond that the bridge over the Des Moines river is now a nicely redecorated and cleaned up pedestrian crossing.
When I saw this loco I thought it was a 3000 HP GE B30-7... but it's a 3200 HP Dash 8-32.
It was switching grain elevators 2 miles east of here and it came into town light for a run-around move.

All the NS B30-7 were built for Southern and had highhoods like this one [link] which actually still exist today and was moved from Altoona to Chattanooga which I think that means it will get new life as a museum engine or at least I hope so.
It's the only existing B30-7 in NS paint and I believe NS still owns it.
