Remarks & Notes |
The HOB Local makes its way through the East Texas pineywoods on its way to the UP interchange at Overton. This line was owned by UP and was slated for abandonment in 2009 until Rusk County and the City of Henderson stepped in to save it, eventually choosing the Blacklands Railroad to operate it after negotiating with UP. Engine 3905 was painted for the Baja California shortline railroad in Mexico without permission from LTEX and is the only engine in the country that has this paint scheme. |
